The hating and the waiting, hesitating I just want to be done with you faking For the taking but I'm wicked Up to the fact that you're lying, and denying Justifying all the actions you take It's pathetic and poetic It's just sick! It's just sick! Is compromise something you don't understand? You force your hand but my eyes are wide open. Caught in the web of your self-serving plan. Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open. Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving All the damage is done And you've broken the notion of trust 'Cause you're lying and denying Justifying all the actions you take It's pathetic and poetic It's just sick! It's just sick! Is compromise something you don't understand? You force your hand but my eyes are wide open. Caught in the web of your self-serving plan. Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open. Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving All the damage is done All the damage is done! All the damage is done! Is compromise something you don't understand? You force your hand but my eyes are wide open. Caught in the web of your self-serving plan. Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open. Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open. Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open. Force my hand When my eyes are wide open. Lying and denying is just sick! Lying and denying is just sick! It's just sick!
