The Only Lyrics
Static-X
Lyrics
I'm winning, you're losing
I'm falling, your agony
Lower than lower before
Your forgotten memory
My heaven, your hell
I'm killing your fantasy
More and more you follow
Your divorced reality
You're trying to take me
You're trying to make me
This is the only
Give me the only thing
I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of lying
The only thing I understand is what I feel
Identity, fantasy
Heresy, killing me
Lower than lower before
This thing to feed
Hypocrite, lunatic
Fanatic, heretic
More and more you follow
Your divorced reality
You're trying to take me
You're trying to make me
This is the only
Give me the only thing
I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of lying
The only thing I understand is what I feel
(solo)
Hypocrite, lunatic, fanatic, heretic x4
You're trying to take me
You're trying to make me
This is the only
Give me the only thing
I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of lying
The only thing I understand is what I feel
You're trying to take me
You're trying to make me
This is the only
Give me the only thing
I'm tired of trying
I'm tired of lying
The only thing I understand is what I feel
