Stone Sour - Stalemate lyrics
[Stone Sour - Stalemate lyrics]
If I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
God, I love excuses
Nothing better than a homemade lie
New rules and old confusion
The ones you just despise
Out of my way, out of my reach
How do you dream if you still can't sleep?
My mind is a terrible gift
And I'd rather be numb than feel this way
Come home when the metal is broken
Another thief doesn't honor a thing
Time flies when the moment is golden
I won't leave this clean
If I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
Half my time in one protection
This is better than a beggar's stand
New shoes and old directions
The epithet of man
Killing my name, killing my past
Nothing's left when nothing lasts
My life is a terrible waste
And I'm going down fast
But, if I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
Oh, don't be so distracted
I can tell you where the story ends
New sins and old abuses no one wins again
This is my chance this is my curse
We all know it'll only get worse
My hell is a terrible case
But, I'll give you all hell first
If I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
If I'm still, if I stall
If I can't be heard, I will never even call
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
The very thought scares the hell out of you
The more I fight, I stay the same
If I fail, if I fall
If I know, if I care at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
God, I love excuses
Nothing better than a homemade lie
New rules and old confusion
The ones you just despise
Out of my way, out of my reach
How do you dream if you still can't sleep?
My mind is a terrible gift
And I'd rather be numb than feel this way
Come home when the metal is broken
Another thief doesn't honor a thing
Time flies when the moment is golden
I won't leave this clean
If I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
Half my time in one protection
This is better than a beggar's stand
New shoes and old directions
The epithet of man
Killing my name, killing my past
Nothing's left when nothing lasts
My life is a terrible waste
And I'm going down fast
But, if I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
I'll never know if I never get through
The more I fight, I stay the same
Oh, don't be so distracted
I can tell you where the story ends
New sins and old abuses no one wins again
This is my chance this is my curse
We all know it'll only get worse
My hell is a terrible case
But, I'll give you all hell first
If I fail, if I fall
If I can't be free, then I never was at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
If I'm still, if I stall
If I can't be heard, I will never even call
The more I fight, I stay the same
Where do I go and what do I do?
The very thought scares the hell out of you
The more I fight, I stay the same
If I fail, if I fall
If I know, if I care at all
The more I fight, I stay the same
