Tell me what do you do when you find the ones close to you
Have been lying, cheating, conniving, scheming right in front of you
We are living in a world that builds you up then tears you down
It's a one-street system you don't know what you're missing
It makes the world go round
Now I'm stuck in a cloud, the rain's falling down 'cause of me
Now I've hit the ground, the waves crashing down round me, yeah
They never told us what we're up against
Now I'm left wondering if I'll ever feel alive again
All this pain in my brain makes me think that I'm insane
They never told us what we're up against
Oh what we're up against
Save ourselves from the sins of our mothers
Oh you think it's a game, I don't wanna end up the same
Trust in who you are
How did I not know? I've lived this life for far too long
They don't wanna help ya, they don't really get ya
And I can't make a sound
Now I'm stuck in a cloud, the rain's falling down 'cause of me yeah
Now I've hit the ground, the waves crashing down round me
Oh yeah
They never told us what we're up against, mmm
Now I'm left wondering if I'll ever feel alive again
All this pain in my brain makes me feel I'm insane, oh
They never told us what we're up against
Oh what we're up against
Oh, thought it was me against the world
But it was me against myself
And now, I don't know which way is up or down
But I gotta keep on falling
Oh gotta keep on climbing
Oh gotta keep on looking till I
Find my way back out
Oh yeah
They never told us what we're up against, oh
Now I'm left wondering if I'll ever feel alive again
All this pain in my brain makes me think that oh I'm insane, yeah
They never told us what we're up against
Oh what we're up against
They never told us what we're up against
Oh what we're
Look what we're up against
