Lyrics

Brainsick

[Verse 1]

Ulterior motives sinking in

How gullible do you think I can get

You state you're not like the others

Then  show your true colours

Intentions glow with a shade of red

I avoid three grids cause of times like this

Now know full well that you don't give a shit

About the state that I'm in or the risks that I'm taking

Turn a blind eye and forget it

[Pre Chorus]

Embrace the sitch and start your healing

Flip the switch control your feelings

[Chorus]

You're just another example of a brainsick type

And you claim your right to

Crush my heart when you trample on my fragile mind

'Til I run and hide

I take another gamble like the freak that I am

With these thoughts that I have

You analyse every angle

Look inside these bloodshot eyes and still expect lies

[Verse 2]

I'm done with this

Doing 90 on the motorway my CD's on

Blasting fucking break up records one by one

Friends sit back and laugh at the way I've become

And what I'm running from

[Pre Chorus]

Another accusation

I'm outta here not worth my time

Hand in my resignation

This boy will never fall in line

[Chorus]

You're just another example of a brainsick type

And you claim your right to

Crush my heart when you trample on my fragile mind

'Til I run and hide

I take another gamble like the freak that I am

With these thoughts that I have

You analyse every angle

Look inside these bloodshot eyes and still expect lies

[Verse 3]

Things that only we know

Still better left unsaid

Of how I fed your ego

In this mess that I regret

You were the best

You were a 10

But the shift that I put in

Clearly didn't mean anything

[Nah, nah fuck that]

[Chorus]

You're just another example of a brainsick type

And you claim your right to

Crush my heart when you trample on my fragile mind

'Til I run and hide

I take another gamble like the freak that I am

With these thoughts that I have

You analyse every angle

Look inside these bloodshot eyes and still expect lies

[Outro]

Another accusation [Things that only we know]

I'm outta here no worth my time

Hand in my resignation [How I fed your ego]

This boy will never fall in line
