Apparatus

[Verse 1]

Looking down again, looking down again

Locked inside again, hide my eyes again

Looking down, locked inside

Hide my eyes again

Staring at my feet again, staring at my feet again

Swimming in the shallow end

[Verse 2]

Get your eyes off my back, get your eyes off my back

Get your eyes off my back, your eyes

I tried to listen to empty heads, embraced ideals already dead

I tried to listen, I tried to fit in

[Interlude]

Oh, I tried, yeah, I lied

Yeah, I died for you

For you, for you

[Verse 3]

I tried to be what you want mе to be

Trying to be the impossiblе

Trying, trying to be the impossible (All my friends are dying off I'm a smoking fucking head)

Dying to be acceptable (All my friends are living on I hope I wind up dead)

Dying to be your standards are killing me
