The Difference Lyrics

Wake up and put on your new shade.
Paint it on with addiction.
This is the first time that you've ever felt alive.
This is not the way it's supposed to be.
I thought that we were family,
but the time has come to figure out where the difference lies
and see the world through honest eyes.

Just admit it.
Let the truth fall from your lips,
cause I've known too many liars
and their decline started just like this.
Well, I'm not perfect and I'm no saint,
but I won't sit here and take the blame,
while you b*** the hand that feeds.
I'd rather shoot the pilot and crash the plane.
This is not the way it's supposed to be.
I thought that we were family,
but the time has come to figure out where the difference lies
and see the world through honest eyes.

It's so hard to be faithful
when you're just lying through your teeth.
I played my part in your downfall,
and still you turned your back on me.
My mind is tracing and replacing.
My heart is beating through my chest.
I'm at the bottom of the bottle,
trying to figure out what's left.
This is not the way it's supposed to be.
I thought that we were family,
but the time has come to figure out where the difference lies
and see the world through honest eyes.
(Listen when I say I've had enough. This is not a game. It's thick as blood.)
