I will not compete this way I refuse to run your race She feeds off all of the anguish and wrath Of those who could not escape from her grasp I wish you could see yourself as I do All these obstructions are tangled round you I will not compete this way I refuse to run your race Turn and run, escape while you can You're just a part of her master plan You've heard the stories and still decided not to heed She promised you, she'd be everything that you need She was an Angel or at least that's what you believed But when you turned your back, you knew that you were deceived You've heard the stories and still decided not to heed She promised you, she'd be everything that you need She was an Angel or at least that's what you believed But when you turned your back, you knew that you were deceived I won't back down, I will hold my ground I won't back down, I will hold my ground You were the world on my chest Now that you're gone, I've got nothing left You've heard the stories and still decided not to heed She promised you, she'd be everything that you need She was an Angel or at least that's what you believed But when you turned your back, you knew that you were deceived You've heard the stories and still decided not to heed She promised you, she'd be everything that you need She was an Angel or at least that's what you believed But when you turned your back, you knew that you were deceived You've heard the stories and still decided not to heed You heard the stories, you heard the stories She was an Angel or at least that's what you believed You heard the stories, you heard the stories Light fires, light fires thanks to your goodbyes Let's start new but start without you I thought you might have been better than this But that ship has sailed and you will not be missed I thought you might have been better than this But that ship has sailed and you will not be missed
