"Simon" - Lifehouse

catch your breath
hit the wall
scream out loud
as you start to fall
back in your cage
the only place
where they will
leave you alone

'cause the weak will seek the weaker
'til they've broken them
could you get it back again
would it be the same?
fulfilment to their lack of strength
at your expense
left you with no defense
they tore it down

and i have felt the same
as you, i have felt the same

locked inside
the only place
where you feel sheltered
where you feel safe
you lost yourself
in your search to find
something else
to hide behind

'cause the fearful always preyed
upon your confidence
didn't they see the consequence
they pushed you around
the arrogant build kingdoms
made of the different ones
breaking them 'til they've become
just another crown

and i have felt the same
as you, i have felt the same

refuse to feel
anything at all
refuse to slip
and refuse to fall
you can't be weak
and you can't stand still
watch your back
'cause no one will

you don't know why they had to go this far
traded your worth for these scars
for your only company
don't believe the lies that they have told to you
not one word was true
you're alright, you're alright

and i have felt the same
as you, i have felt the same
