Get off of work, come home, pass out
My life's become this cancer
Crawling through my skin and after me
I can't give up, I won't lay it down
And though it seems relentless,
I can be relentless too

Now you're better than you think you are
Show these people what you were born to do
'Cause I believe in you
I'd bet my life on you
Forget the awful words they said
Lost a dream then lost their heads
It's funny what fear does to you

I can't seem to escape
My days have become nightmares
And dreams have run away
And I can't give up, I won't lay it down
And though it seems relentless,
I can be relentless too

Now you're better than you think you are
Show these people what you were born to do
'Cause I believe in you
I'd bet my life on you
Forget the awful words they said
Lost a dream then lost their heads
It's funny what fear does to you

Oh, ooh
And I bet you thought this noose was...
Yeah I bet you thought it was too tight
Not yet, not yet

Now you're better than you think you are
Show these people what you were born to do
'Cause I believe in you
I'd bet my life on you
Forget the awful words they said
Lost a dream then lost their head
It's funny what fear does to you
Oh
