"Breaking Cover" lyrics

"Breaking Cover"

I am alive
I am alive
You are alive
We are alive
They are alive
Because of the fleas
Itching with love
Shouting above
The din of the crowd
I am alive

I wanna die
I wanna die
You wanna die
We wanna die
They wanna die
Because of the ways
Drowning in hate
Demons that wait
I'm in my love
I wanna die

It's getting kinda complex these days
Complex these days
Better get a hard ass ready
Complex these days
It's getting kinda complex these days
I don't fear you anymore
But my back breaks under the weight

I wanna know
I wanna know
You wanna know
We wanna know
They wanna know
What's it all mean?
What are we here?
Is this the end?
Can we turn back?
I wanna know

I need a break
I need a break
You need a break
We need a break
They need a break
It's all on top
It's too much noise
I can't turn it off
Panic attacks
I need a break

It's getting kinda complex these days
We better get a hard ass ready
Complex these days
It's getting kinda complex these days
I don't fear you anymore
It's getting kinda complex these days
We better get a hard ass ready
Complex these days
It's getting kinda complex these days
I don't fear you anymore
But my back breaks under the weight
Too late (too late)
Too late (too late)
Too late (too late)
(Too late)
(Too late)
(Too late)
(Too late)
