Milk it for all it's worth
Make sure you get them first
The apple of your eye
The rotten core inside
We are all prisoners
Things couldn't get much worse
I've had it up to here
You know your end is near
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Intoxicated eyes, no longer live that life
You should have learned by now, I'll burn this whole world down
I need some peace of mind, no fear of what's behind
You think you've won this fight, you've only lost your mind
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Oh, oh, oh
Hold me down (I will live again)
Hold me down (I will break it in)
Hold me down (better in the end)
Hold me down
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Heaven help you
Heaven help you
Make sure you get them first
The apple of your eye
The rotten core inside
We are all prisoners
Things couldn't get much worse
I've had it up to here
You know your end is near
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Intoxicated eyes, no longer live that life
You should have learned by now, I'll burn this whole world down
I need some peace of mind, no fear of what's behind
You think you've won this fight, you've only lost your mind
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Oh, oh, oh
Hold me down (I will live again)
Hold me down (I will break it in)
Hold me down (better in the end)
Hold me down
You had to have it all
Well, have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve
When all is said and done
I will be the one
To leave you in the misery and hate what you've become
Heaven help you
Heaven help you

this song is one of my favorites on Phobia, but they really remind me of Chevelle now with this Drop A tuning. This song in particular. The refrain on this and Vitamin R are the same pattern. Breaking Benjamin kicks arse! ROCK ON.
Best line on the entire album:
"You should have learned by now, I'll burn this WHOLE WORLD DOWN!"
Love it!
I didn't even catch on to that. I think you're right though, nice call. :P
my thoughts exactly when i heard it as well...
Best song on Phobia.
I don't know anything about the stuff with the old drummer, but I think this song is about greedy bastards getting what they deserve.
Thank you, captain obvious.
Haha. I'm gonna have to agree with IndelibleEntity. It sounds like some greedy bastards are definitely getting what they deserve.
Yeah, it has to be about Jeremy Hummel, who was the former drummer of the band. He sued BB for something like $8 million after saying they didn't pay him for songs he helped write. This is my personal favorite song on the album. It's such a powerful song, especially when he says "greedy little bastard, you will get what you deserve." I just went to a BB concert in Des Moines Sunday night and they were fucking amazing. They didn't play this song unfortunately. Awesome performers.
@sevenrowsback I agree. I also think the bridge that is just Ben saying to hold him down is him saying that a part of him wants to go further than just fight the lawsuit and that either someone else or he himself has to stop himself from doing that.
Love this song, i love it when he sings "hold me down" its like if you dont some mofos gonna die haha great song
@ TheRavager
definately not. It's about Hummel, the ex drummer. has nothing to do with national politics. Green Day can help you there.
I know, that's just what I thought the first time I heard it.
