It ain't like that

There I was, laid out on a table
Screamin´ sweat and bare feet to the floor
In my life, I´d not soften
Things that cut, and burn so often
But I sit, think of somethin´
Scared to face, the dyin´ nothin´
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
Where I go is when I feel I´m able
How I fight is why I´m feelin´ sore
In my sight, not forgotten
Feel as though, a tooth were rotten
Behind the smile, a tongue that´s slippin´
Buzzards cry, when flesh is rippin´
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
Here I sit writing on the paper
Trying to think of words you can´t ignore
In my eyes, what I´m lacking
Score at face, a ten for slacking
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller fish, so huge the ocean
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
Screamin´ sweat and bare feet to the floor
In my life, I´d not soften
Things that cut, and burn so often
But I sit, think of somethin´
Scared to face, the dyin´ nothin´
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
Where I go is when I feel I´m able
How I fight is why I´m feelin´ sore
In my sight, not forgotten
Feel as though, a tooth were rotten
Behind the smile, a tongue that´s slippin´
Buzzards cry, when flesh is rippin´
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
Here I sit writing on the paper
Trying to think of words you can´t ignore
In my eyes, what I´m lacking
Score at face, a ten for slacking
Sign the deal, set in motion
Smaller fish, so huge the ocean
See the cycle I´ve waited for
It ain´t like that anymore
