Scary

One day, you dig too far and you don't like what you find
But your heart doesn't change as quickly as your mind
And you try to let go, but it's hard
And you cry as you realize just how badly you've been scarred

Now you're no longer blind, it hurts so much to see
What was a distant myth is now reality
And you can't bare to stay where you are
So you have to betray those who got you this far

Iron sharpens iron,
But what do we do when we're all this blunt?
And it's like we've been tryin'
To find our way out while we're back to front
So we go on living our lost lives of lies,
Told that that's life and there is no compromise
It's hard to believe we could all be so dense
Ain't it scary when the bad guys make sense

After a while, your feelings switch off; you're just numb
What would they say if they could see what you've become?
No it doesn't matter any more
'Cause they're not the ones that you're now fighting for

Iron sharpens iron,
But they'll never change if they're all this blunt
And you know that they're trying
To find their way out while they're back-to-front
So they'll go on living their lost lives of lies,
Taught that a good person is one who complies
It's hard to believe they could all be so dense
Ain't it scary when the bad guys make sense

Sometimes you miss how it was before
But there's no turning back now you've crossed the floor
Everything you ever knew was wrong
The enemy was really right all along

And now people are dying,
So you have no choice but to end this stunt
But there's no more denying,
Those who you still love, you must now confront
Or they'll go on living their lost lives of lies,
So who cares if you're the one they have to despise?
A worthy expense
Got to hope they think the bad guy makes sense
