I'm gettin'
I'm gettin'
I'm gettin'

I'm gettin' over
and pushing past all the bullshit
and getting right to the root
of what the problem really is
The reasons for the misunderstandings
the emergency landings
on a plane headed for home
It's where the heart was living
till it was without feeling
and started revealing itself to everyone else
by just packing up, moving out
saying it could do without
a barely able, unstable, running off at the mouth

So I'm tearing this and everything else between
me and what I wanna do, to pieces
I'm tearing you and everything else between
me and you to memory
I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)
I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)

Now if you would've waited one second
you wouldn't feel so second
The second I put you first
it made the situation worse
Cuz you wanna take advantage and control of the things
that I manage to keep under control
like, my happiness, my family, and all of my music
You had it all
You chose to abuse it

So I'm tearing this and everything else between
me and what I wanna do, to pieces
I'm tearing you and everything else between
me and you to memory
I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)
I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)

What's wrong with me?
You want to know what's wrong with me?
I could ask you the exact same thing
What's wrong with me?
You want to know what's wrong with me?
I could ask you the exact same thing
I have my opinion and you have yours
You don't have to like mine, cuz I don't like yours
I have my opinion and you have yours
You don't have to like mine, cuz I don't like yours
What's wrong with you?
I want to know whats wrong with you
and why this doesn't make sense to you
What's wrong with you?
I want to know whats wrong with you
and why this doesn't make sense to you

I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kicking
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)
I'm stronger now even after everything that you did
Still alive and kick (Woooah)
I'm better now, I'm awake
Now I can see, everything in front of me (now)

Now I see everything
in front of me (now)
Now I see everything
in front of me (now)

    General Comment:I listen to this song and think about my ex...as im pushing myself at the gym and listening to this im thinking to myself "look at what Ive done and how far I have come. I no longer sit at home wallowing in depression/grief/regret. Im getting my shit together while you sit on your ass and rot. Im tearing it up and focusing on what I want. So F*** you and have a nice day. :)

    Great song to listen to at the gym!!!

    General Comment:The essence of being an individual beyond the lack of human appreciation, for it is a common desire that everyone think as one's own belief yet true harmony is only an inner reception that is satisfied by accepting normalcy in oneself!

    General Comment:This song is pretty sweet, perfect for woeking out to, or just getting pumped up. Really though I think this band and this song are pretty much generic nu metal. But good none the less.
