It's one of those days where I'm dragging my feet and I'm throwing my weight around.
It's one of those days where I'm miserable at best.
A fly in a web,
I'm caught in something that I don't enjoy.
Stop, look and listen.
I'll be who I want to be.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control.
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck,
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
Locked away for good.
Saying I'm okay is a disguise for my shadowy tracks.
My main goal in sight,
I'll put up a fight until I score.
Stop, look and listen.
I'll be who I want to be.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control.
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck.
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
locked away for good.
I want to see the world from a new light.
I know there's more to life.
I'm the number one outlaw,
I'll break the rules they're setting me.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control,
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck.
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
Locked away for good,
Locked away for good.
