Growing up following intuition
Trusting friends without question
Where does that road lead?
Before you think
You're in some kinda trouble
Stuck alone with no one to lean on
What would you do?

They aren't gonna see the tears rolling down you face
They aren't gonna help when you fall flat on your face
The only one who's gonna be there is you

Embrace the world you see in your own eyes
Forget the past, which you cannot change
Leave the perversion that is seeping through the cracks
Live your dream, make it your reality

Life's just a game of chess
You can't see which side is which
It's all a game you can barely learn to follow
Even if you could hear me
Even if you mean the words you said
You're still lying to yourself
You wouldn't do anything would you?

They're not going to be your guardian angel
They're not going to be responsible for the choices you make
The only one who can is you

Embrace the world you see in your own eyes
Forget the past, which you cannot change
Leave the perversion that is seeping through the cracks
Live your dream, make it your reality

I've tried to be all that I can be
Still busy filling in the gaps
Trying to fix the mess I made
Only to have more staring straight at me
No place to falter, not time to waste
Have to make choices and stick with them
Leave the repulsive vultures to feast on their corpses

You've got to see beneath the lies and madness
You've got to learn that the voices outside can make or break
It's yours to hold, the world and its riches

Embrace the world you see in your own eyes
Forget the past, which you cannot change
Leave the perversion that is seeping through the cracks
Live your dream, make it your reality
