My Life For Hire

Somebody give me a sign
That everything's going as planned
And then everything falls away
Into the darkness of this shallow place

The detail is striking
The room's cold and frightening
You'll kick and you'll scream
You'll try everything to survive
But you should know your fate by now

They told me (they told me)
How I should be
But I broke the mold somehow!

It's too vague, too vague
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done to me

You, you know you gotta assert yourself
Leave what you need for now
It's not the time or place you're searching for
All I can give them's my worst of intentions
You're nothing to me and everyone can see that
Your life's a lie, there's nowhere left to hide

They told me (they told me)
How I should be
"But I broke the mold somehow!"

It's too vague, too vague
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done

It's too vague, too vague
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done

Watch your back, you'll lose yourself
This is a battleground
When will all they know...

Your life's a lie

It's too vague, too vague
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done

It's too vague, too vague
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I'll be the one
To let the world know what you've done

They told me (they told me)
How I should be
"But I broke the mold somehow!"
