Verse 1

Fear can drive stick and it's taking me down this road

A road down which I swore I'd never go

And here I sit thinking of God knows what

Afraid to admit I might self-destruct

Pre Chorus:

So lock the windows and bolt the door

Cuz I've got enough problems without creating more

Chorus

I feel like I was born to devastation and reform

Destroying everything I loved and the worst part is

I pull my heart out, reconstruct and in the end it's nothing but

The shell of what I had when I first started

Interlude

Verse 2

Usually I'll cause my own first hit it seems to me to be slightly masochistic

But there'd be no story without all this dissension

So I inflict the conflict with the utmost of contemption

(Pre Chorus) (Chorus)

Bridge

Thank you God for giving me the insight

So I might make these wrongs right

If and when there ever is a next time

Cuz failure is a blessing in disguise

Pull my heart out, reconstruct

And in the end it's nothing but

The shell of what I had when I first started

The shell of what I had when I first started

(Chorus)

Outro

When I first started

The shell of what I had when I first started
