Rage

Tonight I’m feeling like I wanna lose control
Because you’re out there telling lies about me
Like the kind you find inside a tabloid magazine

How many times you think I’ll take it on the chin?
I’m not the kind of man who’ll give it all
and give some more when I can never win.

And as storm is closing in, I’m paying for your sins
A martyr in the end.
I’ll celebrate deliverance, embrace the bitterness.
There’s no need to pretend.
You don’t fool me.

Tonight I’m gonna do the things I wanna do
I’ve cast away all reservations, thrown my chains aside,
I’ve hit my stride and coming after you.

And soon you’ll figure out there’s nowhere safe to run.
You face the beast I’m freeing from the cage,
the raging lunatic that’s burning hotter than the sun.

Just for a moment, if I could, I’d make believe
you could forgive me for the pain I’m going through.
But if it’s true we only hurt the ones we love,
then perhaps you will forgive like so many other times
I did for you.

Tonight I’m feeling like I’m taking back control.
I’ll be cashing in and cashing out,
collecting back on everything I’m owed.

No doubt about it, I’ll be settling the score,
and when the smoke is gone, you’ll realize
what still remains is worthless as the love you never showed.

And as storm is closing in, I’m paying for your sins
A martyr in the end.
I’ll celebrate deliverance, embrace the bitterness.
There’s no need to pretend.
You don’t fool me.
