Anger boils over Pulse running fast Forever fight or flight Till my brain melts down I think I’ve gone insane I never really know Is it them or is it me Is this how it feels Have I really gone crazy I can’t tell from the inside All I see is bright lights And then I can’t do anything [Chorus] I feel the weight of the world So heavy Ties me down Ten tons pulling me to the ground Living in a hell I didn’t ask for I can’t escape from what They say I create How can I know Am I living my life By the flames of a gaslight [instrumental interlude, strings and synth rise and build tension] [Anger and fury building] I can’t really see Everything is just a fog to me All I know is wrong But I’m not sure now Have I been gone all along [angry scream] This guilt trip Was never mine to bear But Who ever said life is fair [Chorus] I feel the weight of the world So heavy Ties me down Ten tons pulling me to the ground Living in a hell I didn’t ask for I can’t escape from what They say I create How can I know Am I living my life By the flames of a gaslight They said for so long I am the reason it all went wrong And I believed it was all my fault If I didn’t break before Well now I must be done for [shredding guitar solo with angry and hysterical screams in the background] [Chorus] I feel the weight of the world So heavy Ties me down Ten tons pulling me to the ground Living in a hell I didn’t ask for I can’t escape from what They say I create How can I know Am I living my life By the flames of a gaslight [Spoken outro] When will they admit it This was the reason [Spoken] I knew I wasn’t crazy… [Spoken] Now I am
