No one destroys
Now one Creates
No loves
No one hates

This is the curse of just getting by
No one is different from the next guy

We want to get out
But it's a slippery slope without a doubt
Once your in
It's hard to go back again

This is the curse of just getting by
No one is different from the next guy

Choose to stand out
Let out a shout
Don't let others tell you what to do
Unless you wish to be blue

Choose to love
Choose to hate
Yourself you will create
