Antidote

Faith is not a "feelings antidote"
Faith will never take the place of pain and fear
Fake believers artificial hope
Changing others like they're looking in the mirror

Do you know why, know why, you're looking for the antidote
And know why, know why, you're looking for somebody in the mirror
Know why, know why
Addicted to the pain we push inside
'Cause we're too afraid to feel
Something real

Always looking for a way to cope
A relationship that doesn't make you feel
You paint a picture of perfection
But their approval it won't ever ever make you real

Do you know why, know why, you're looking for the antidote
And know why, know why, you're looking for somebody in the mirror
Know why, know why
Addicted to the pain we push inside
'Cause we're too afraid to feel
Something real

Criticizing vulnerability you say that it is weak
Treating people like they're property you own
Then you hide behind the walls that you create
And play the victim when you always feel alone
The greed and selfishness we put upon ourselves
An identity that doesn't have a soul
A fucking hypocrite
A liar who just wants control (control)
You never had control (control)
(That's right!)

Do you know why, know why, you're looking for the antidote
And you know why, know why, you're looking for somebody in the mirror
Know why, know why
Addicted to the pain we push inside
'Cause we're too afraid to feel
Something real
