How Does It Feel

I’ve been pushed down
and trampled on
I get back up and stand my ground
It takes more than air and arteries to live
You think you’ve got me figured out
We never wanted this!

Your compromises make me sick!
They make me sick!
You dug yourself a hole now bury your head in the sand
Your compromises make me sick!
They make me sick!
You dug yourself a hole now bury your head!

How did it feel when you figured us out?
How did it feel pushed away?
Calloused and scarred we keep on raising the bar
We shut you out cause you’ve got nothing to say
We never wanted it to end this way
But it has!

It’s time to see what you’ve done to me
These words keep rushing out of me and
I mean what I say
I’ve torn myself apart at the seams again
What goes around will come around in the end
We never wanted this!

Your compromises make me sick!
They make me sick!
You dug yourself a hole now bury your head in the sand
Your compromises make me sick!
They make me sick!
You dug yourself a hole now bury your head!

How does it feel to have us figured out?
How does it feel to push us away
Calloused and scarred yet we’re raising the bar
Shut you down cause there’s nothing to say
We never wanted to end like this
We never wanted to end like this
But it has

How did it feel when you figured us out?
How did it feel pushed away?
Calloused and scarred we keep on raising the bar
We shut you out cause you’ve got nothing to say
