Close Your Eyes - Burdened By Hope

If I wasn't born to lose then why do I keep crumbling?
I can feel the place that I call home. And every step I take,
I’m pulled three back.
I see the sea of faces with their hearts on their sleeve;
they stare and do nothing for all my screams.
You liar! You fake! You spit poison in my face.
You liar! You fake! I'll never hear the words you say.
And even when I’m at the end of my rope,
I’m broken and hungry and burdened by hope,
I will push you away. You liar! You fake!
These cries are growing louder with each and every step.
How long til I’m done taking whatever I can get?
And I regret the lies I tell myself.
These words are lacking substance.
I need to break these wretched chains.
You liar! You fake! You spit poison in my face.
You liar! You fake! I'll never hear the words you say.
And even when I’m at the end of my rope,
I’m broken and hungry and burdened by hope,
I will push you away. You liar! You fake!
I will not sacrifice the way I live, it's all for something more.
I don't believe you.
I don't believe a word that you say because I know there's something more.
I don't believe you.
I’ll never fall for the games that you play because I know there's something more.
