Stalemate

If I fail, if I fall If I can't be free, then I never was at all The more I fight, I stay the same Where do I go, and what do I do? I'll never know if I never get through The more I fight, I stay the same Got a lot, a lot of excuses Nothing better than a homemade lie New rules and old confusion The ones you just despise Out of my way, out of my reach Out of your dream, if you still can't sleep My mind is a terrible gift And I'd rather be numb than feel this way Come home with the medal, it's broken Another fake that's another mistake Just once, when the moment is golden I will leave this clean If I fail, if I fall If I can't be free, then I never was at all The more I fight, I stay the same Where do I go, and what do I do? I'll never know if I never get through The more I fight, I stay the same Half my time and one protection This is better than a bigger stand New shoes in old directions The epitaph of man Killing my name, killing my past Nothing's left when nothing lasts My life is a terrible waste And I'm going down fast If I fail, if I fall If I can't be free, then I never was at all The more I fight, I stay the same Where do I go, and what do I do? I'll never know if I never get through The more I fight, I stay the same Oh, don't be so distracted I can tell you where the story ends New sins and old abuses And no one wins again This is my chance, this is my curse We all know it'll only get worse My hell is a terrible case But I'll give you all hell first If I fail, if I fall If I can't be free, then I never was at all The more I fight, I stay the same If I still, if I stole if I can be hurt I would never even go The more I fight, I stay the same Where do I go, and what do I do? The very thought scares the hell out of you The more I fight, I stay the same If I fail, if I fall If I know if I care at all The more I fight, I stay the same --- Stalemate - Stone Sour
