Toxic Mask

I was an average kid From an average place It wasn't easy to wipe away the disappointed look upon my face Are we repeating the past? Don't wanna be chosen last It's like we were supposed to be exposed to evils, wear a toxic mask I'm stepping into the light I'm stepping into the light We keep moving 'cause we both know what's on the other side I wanna scream it to everyone that ever loved The innocent that won't speak up You never seem to get enough You're right up to the edge I wanna tell ya that time goes on, you'll rise above You'll realize this broken world Will not be what it should till you Surrender in the end So they set us adrift Knowing we're anchorless If you're lucky you'll find a kindred spirit, someone who can steer the wind Or else you'll fall through the cracks Like a panic attack We became the very wolves that raised us We must not betray the pack I'm stepping into the light Stepping into the light They keep saying if we stay strong we won't be left behind I'm stepping into the light Stepping into the light We keep moving 'cause we both know what's on the other side I wanna scream it to everyone that ever loved The innocent that won't speak up You never seem to get enough You're right up to the edge I wanna tell ya that time goes on, you'll rise above You'll realize this broken world Will not be what it should till you Surrender in the end Stepping into the light Keep saying if we stay strong we won't be left behind I'm stepping into the light I'm stepping into the light We both know, yeah, we both know what's on the other side Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you surrender in the end? Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you pretend, will you surrender? Will you surrender in the end?
