DooRs SLaMMeD SHuT

Secrets out, there ain't no fooling you
Yes, I have changed since you've gone away
You dwell in lies, while I dwell in the truth
And in that way, I haven't changed -  at all.
Im cold and hardened, but pure inside
My heart, its still raw under the mask 
Leach on my kindness, your still a parasite
And now your back with your haunted past - you still crawl.
And I won't be your savior 
(Im not your Superman, no. I've got my own shit)
And I won't fix all thats broken in you
(Not after all that I know, Iv'e killed that habit)
And Im not gonna wait for
(A sign of shimmering gold under the tarnish)
Sometimes what we want to see isn't true
(You taught me that much, by being selfish)
I've moved on, I live looking ahead 
You've been regressing, reliving past mistakes
I could have died, I chose to live instead
I chose to fight on, no matter what it takes - I'll win
Crave attention, you love the center stage
In your production of "oh poor twisted me" 
But in this lifestyle, your mindset is a cage 
Instead of working on setting you free - Your grim.
And I won't be your savior 
(Im not your Superman, no. I've got my own shit)
And I won't fix all thats broken in you
(Not after all that I know, Iv'e killed that habit)
And Im not gonna wait for
(A sign of shimmering gold under the tarnish)
Sometimes what we want to see isn't true
(You taught me that much, by being selfish)
