Battle For The Nice Guy

Here, as the last line opens the first time
I've decided to take some care
It's not all that easy
Fighting the part of me
That would shrink and disappear
But they're killing us off one by one
And this land locked lake is going to flood
The rapid streams would take anything
I've been far too nice to take you down
So I apologize to myself
What was right has been corrupted by the sunrise
Not forgotten despite hard times in this battle for the nice guy
What more can I say?
It has been this way for years
Respect is delusion and tongues have been loosened
Well, this wide assault on my senses
Has left me coarse and defenseless
But they're killing us off one by one
And this land locked lake is going to flood
The rapid streams would take anything
I've been far too nice to take you down
So I apologize to myself
What was right has been corrupted by the sunrise
Not forgotten despite hard times in this battle for the nice guy
Out with the old weak cry-in the-street kind of mentality
You took us all for granted; made us what you to wanted us to be
Without our teeth, and now we're chewing on your lies
And if the hopes of others for you is simply not enough
You're fed up with this game 'cause it's just too
I've been far too nice to take you down
So I apologize to myself
What was right has been corrupted by the sunrise
Not forgotten despite hard times in this battle for the nice guy, this battle for the nice guy
