The pet he found at the bar

the status of a new car with it 

big money made a new job

To make him feel a less slob of it 

new standards changed the ego

the villain now a hero

looks at life, and takes a bite

a piece of paper makes him proud

the silence of success has gotta seem so loud

his future in a uniform

he's just another number in the eye of the storm

obstructure to late

Is a piece he cannot pay - the cost of pride

and still he hides dies inside - alone he sheds a tear

for the memories of before from it

a tribute to the good of the lord

the bible is the way to forget

New standards changed the ego 

the villain now a hero

looks at life, it's flee or fight

Its nervous laughter business now

it used to be a trip to circle - seven without

The plan for number one to rise

the world he lives in is a price tag lie

obstructure to late

Is a piece he cannot pay - the cost of pride

and still he hides inside - dies inside

(Have you ever felt alone?)

(Have you ever felt alone in the crowd?)

You keep your mouth shut

But inside you scream out loud 

stay real to yourself, be afraid of yourself

Find a heaven in hell

(Have you ever felt alone?)

Are you so together that you unwound?

You got a pulse so loud you cant hear a sound

Of them talking to you, trying to see though you 

And you don't know what to do

obstructure to late

Is a piece he cannot pay - the cost of pride

and still he hides inside - dies inside

(can't be alone, he can't)

Dies inside

(can't be alone, he can't)

Dies inside

(can't be alone, he can't)

Dies inside

(can't be alone)
