Caught out alone, and I'm tryin' to be free. Caught up in things that are inside of me. Lookin' for something that I cannot see. Losing my faith but I'm tryin' to believe. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith. Tryin' to be free. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my :. The world is after me. The world is after me. There feeding their jones, I'm reluctant to fight. Caught out alone at the end of the night. They're lookin' for victims and lookin' for me. I'm blind in my eyes but I'm tryin' to see. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith. Tryin' to see. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my : The world is after me. The whole world is after me. Feel like I'm caught in the ocean, there's always someone to help me down. The twisted tangled emotions, there's always someone to help me drown. Tryin' to believe. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith. Tryin' to be free. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith. Tryin' to see. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith. Tryin' to see. Losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my faith, losing my : The world is after me. The whole world is after me. The world is after me. The whole world is after me. The world is after me.
