lyrics

I was taught from the start
Have a warm heart open up
Never give in
Don't ever fall apart
The harsh truth has got fangs
Claws deep in my back
It turned my world around
Makes it all go black
Makes it all go black

I'm just a screw up cursed by bad luck
Tossed out in a world of rattlesnakes
I'm dumb enough to walk the walk
But still smart enough to learn from my mistakes

Better watch my back
Because I'm on my own
Everything I am
Turns to dust
And it all goes black

I'm in the bottom of your pit
Covered with mud mixed with blood and anger
Don't ever trust a snitch
Don't turn your back to a stranger

Better watch my back
Because I'm on my own
Everything I am
Falls to the pressure of love
And the struggle to succeed
The cuts in my back continue to bleed
Endlessly
I'll walk alone
No need for sympathy
I'm not like you
You live in fear

Live in fear

Better watch my back
Because I'm on my own
Everything I am
Turns to dust
