Contrariety

There's this golden standard that you hold me to
I'll do as I'm asked, as long as it pleases you
You peer into me with both those cold, dead eyes
I'm no longer sure what I need to sacrifice
Just drop down your walls now, I'm coming in
Planting lies and fiction, only one will win
We've been at this for too long, can't let it go
If only it were so simple
There is this great divide, can't find my heart
Shatter the mirror, falling apart
You won't keep me out for that much more
Cause you've no idea what I've got in store

You and I are nothing alike
But I won't go down without a fight
Down without a fight
Just drop those walls down
I'm coming in
I'll do whatever it takes
To see that you don't win
Your lies are paper thin

There's this golden standard that you hold me to
I'll do as I'm asked, as long as it pleases you
You peer into me with both those cold, dead eyes
I'm no longer sure what I need to sacrifice
Just drop down your walls now, I'm coming in
Planting lies and fiction, only one will win
We've been at this for too long, can't let it go
If only it were so simple
There is this great divide, can't find my heart
Shatter the mirror, falling apart
You won't keep me out for that much more
Cause you've no idea what I've got in store
