Step on up
 
 What makes me think that it'll all work out in the end
 
 Afraid to feel bad, better off to try and pretend
 
 I'm immortal, immune to all that is wrong
 
 Just keep on wishing, crossing my fingers so long
 
 Is this helping, I'm growing weaker each day
 
 Can't stop whining, still afraid of what I might say
 
 Or reactions, that control us one and all
 
  
  It's mine, it's pure, and as decent as I can make myself
 
 Inside, we all know, only the strong survive
  
 
 Why don't you think about that?
 
 So now I'm bleeding, on myself yes once again
 
 Seems I trusted another deceitful friend
 
 My fault. Should've known the deal
 
 Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer, for real
 
 Seems easy, but nothing could be so hard
 
 Trying to guess life's dealing what's the next card?
 
 I'm surely folding, I don't like this hand at all
  
 
 It's mine, it's pure, and as decent as I can make myself
 
 Inside, we all know, only the strong survive
  
 
 Keep those eyes wide open, here comes a blind side
 
 Maybe things happen for a reason, and wherein lies the answer
 
 To overcome the grieving of life's unruly lessons
 
 I'm handed in succession
 
 It builds my pain which makes me strong
  
 
 It's mine, it's pure, and as decent as I can make myself
 
 Inside, we all know, only the strong survive
  
 
 Why don't you think about that?
 
 Why don't you think about this for a minute?
