I’m hanging on a threat   So much in me feels sick but I only want   To confront   What’s meant for me with a hint of dignity      Dreadful to see   A life lived as a slave for the industry   Smothered fantasies   Gone down the drain along with the poison running through the vein      I’ve felt the temptation   Pleasure gained by addiction   But I won’t trade my pride for feeling good   I’ll suffer just as much as I need to      (Chorus)   I’m not the one who’s waiting for you   I won’t give in, I belong to no one   I am not the one with a guilty conscience   But is it wrong to belong to no one      I learned the hard way   To appreciate myself too much to love   Unconditionally   But so much control has left a hole in me      Suspicions wear me down   I will never be completely free   I’m a servant   Of my obsession to question everything      I’ve felt the temptation   Happiness gained by illusions   But I won’t deceive my mind with substitutes   I’ll rather grow as much as I need to      (Chorus)      In the midst of chaos   On these decadent streets   I stand at the crossroads   Should I pretend or surrender?
