Velcra


Throw the stick and I'll run to pick it 
Blindly believing the win-win deal is real 
Still, all I'm dealing with is my own greed 
Deceiving me 
I wait for reward like a good corporate whore 
Hungry for more, wanting it all 
Well, no more 
I don't recognise myself anymore 

I've shouted till my throat is sore 
Don't care who wins and who don't 
The game's no longer on 

Catch me! 
Never, never can 
Chase me! 
Never, never 
Grab me! 
Never, never can 
Face me! 
Never, never 

So it continues on and on 
Bigger, faster, louder more and more 
This race can never be won 
Time being the only thing I can't afford 
My soul is not for sale 
I spit out the bait 
Cause it's never too late 
To check the time and date 
To quit the chase 
Rearrange the ways I operate 

Clashing, irrational 
My point of view may be out of fashion 
But this protest comes with passion 

Catch me! 
Never, never can 
Chase me! 
Never, never 
Grab me! 
Never, never can 
Face me! 
Never, never 

Fire, fire burn it down! 
Fire, fire to the ground! 

Unpredictable 
Can't be controlled 
My mind is not imprisoned anymore 
I don't know where to go 
Or what happens next 
I'm perplexed 
You seem vexed 
No stress, we passed the test 
This was never about excess 
Nevertheless, I won't give up yet 
I haven't run out of dreams 
Never seazed to believe 
And anxiously wait and see 
What the future brings 
Not again will I feel inside me 
Deflated, empty 
Now I speak, now I make the rules 
Proudly carry my views like the family jewels 
I won't justify my moves 
Cause I'm immune 
When I've got nothing to lose 

Fire, fire burn it down! 
Fire, fire to the ground!
