I'll take you on a ride
As part-owner to my pain
Our ideals they collide
Coerced coexistence
I fought the world today
Postpone my birth again
We stumble on and on
But bound to die alone
Pain
I'm selling my soul today
Pain
I need some sympathy
♪
This infiltrates my brain
"In the sunshine the sun is mine"
Pitiless wanderer
Close your eyes and bow your head
Grotesque thoughts in a line
Threw my wings onto the blazing sun
Smile stretched on old trees
Eternal grinning jester masque
Pain
I'm selling my soul today

"Don't hurt a fly," they all sing
We are just ants in a great big play
Commercialize (infect), annihilate (progress)
Visualize (inhale), pretend (betray)
