I'd kill today to get out of this darkness of your shadow.

I am tired from believing anyone can do this thing.

I've given everything away in hopes I could accomplish 

what so many groups have done before.

I barely touch the ladder.



Oh, it takes it's toll.

I've given up enough to make it to the top. 

It's tearing me apart.

I'm singing from my heart.



But, hey!

I don't wanna say it.

I don't wanna hear how much you're making.

Always telling me to change our sound,

Always trying hard to bring us down.

I said hey!

I don't wanna say it,

One look at our name and you hate it.

It don't mean shit! I'm over it.



Oh, it takes it's toll.

I've given up enough to make it to the top.

It's tearing me apart.

I'm singing from my heart.



Take a deep breath,

Hold it in until there's nothing left. 

Ohh.

I said take a deep breath,

Hold it in until there's nothing left. 

Take take, take a deep breath,

Hold it in until there's nothing left.



Oh, it takes it's toll.

I've given up enough to make it to the top.

It's tearing me apart.

I'm singing from my heart.
