[Verse 1] Need for attention Need for solace In this abuse-ridden world I've fallen into oblivion with you A mental hand shake of fools [Pre-Chorus] This life has gotten us all The paradox still remains We live to choke the difference Carry the weight of an awful fate That's what they told you to do [Chorus] Nothing's changed Nothing will We still live the other truth It makes us cope with our need for violence Nothing's changed Nothing will We still give The water's still But it still drowns our wish with silence [Pre-Chorus 2] I can laugh in the face of god Cause I won't be loved in the end [Chorus 2] Look at all of the pain that I've felt The truth that I've bent to accommodate Myself A sideshow with misery An affair with no dignity I've lost myself [Solo: Andersson] [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] While the silence remains You and I pick the change The scraps of a lost free will I won't bother, you won't see But we can sense the infinite dream [Pre-Chorus 2] [Chorus 2] x2
