Cut me up with words inside your mind
Cut me up like there's no paradise
Cut me up with teeth as sharp as knives
Cut me up to go, run and hide
Thinking like you've never ever felt the back of your skull
Like you've never heard the sound
Acting like you've never ever felt the break of your cage
Like you've never been hurt
Dead alive
Running so empty like we're gonna die
Put up the walls for us to stay inside
Feeling so heavy like we're dead alive, dead alive
Like we're dead alive, dead alive this time
Lock me up with chains and paper ties
Lock me up, leave out the parasite
Lock me up to stop the overdrive
Lock me up so I can go and fight
Thinking like you've never ever felt the back of your skull
Like you've never heard the sound
Acting like you've never ever felt the break of your cage
Like you've never been hurt
Dead alive
Running so empty like we're gonna die
Put up the walls for us to stay inside
Feeling so heavy like we're dead alive, dead alive
Like we're dead alive, dead alive this time
Playing games inside my mind
Inside, outside, out of time
Playing games inside my mind
Inside, outside, out of time
Dead alive
Running so empty like we're gonna die
Put up the walls for us to stay inside
Feeling so heavy like we're dead alive, dead alive
Like we're dead alive, dead alive this time
