Lyrics

    This world rejects me
    This world threw me away
    This world never gave me a chance
    This world gonna have to pay
    
    Well I don’t believe in your institutions
    I did what you wanted me to
    And like the cancer in your system
    I’ve got a little surprise for you
    
    Something inside of me
    Has opened up its eyes
    Why did you put it there?
    Did you not realize?
    This thing inside of me
    It screams the loudest sound
    Sometimes I think I could
    
    Burn
    
    I look down at where you’re standing
    Flock of sheep all on display
    With all your lies piled up around you
    I can take it all away
    
    Something inside of me
    Has opened up its eyes
    Why did you put it there?
    Did you not realize?
    This thing inside of me
    It screams the loudest sound
    Sometimes I think I could
    
    I’m gonna burn this whole world down
    
    I never was a part of you
    
    I am your savior
    I am corruption
    I am the angel
    Of your destruction
    I am perversion
    Secret desire
    I am your future
    Swallowed up in fire
