Wake in a sweat again
Another day's been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like I'll never leave this place
There's no escape
I'm my own worst enemy

[Chorus]
I've given up
I'm sick of feeling!
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away
I'm suffocating!
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me!

I don't know what to take
Thought I was focused, but I'm scared
I'm not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help somehow, somewhere
And no one cares
I'm my own worst enemy

[Chorus]

God!

Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my...
Put me out of my fucking misery!

[Chorus]

    Yeah um second favorite song on the album? the first being no more sorrow

    But I think this song is about someone who fucked up so much that they're just gonna kill themselves

    But they can't do that so they're asking someone to do it for them

    oh yeah in an interview with chester he said that the sound of this album is the sound that they've always been striving for

    He said that they have always been a dark band and that they believe they finally achieved "darkness" with this album

    and we all know that means emo music!

    another side note:

    why do people like collision course?

    I listened to taht and its almost as if J-fagget-Z didn't even give LP much of a chance to do anything with their music

    He fucking used his gay-ass music, sung his gay-ass lyrics, and Linkin Park only introduced their songs in each "song" for like thirty seconds each

    fagget Jay-Z
