about

Featuring a spoken-word opening speech by "The Great Dictator"'s Charlie Chaplin.

lyrics

Sometimes I think the world's gone crazy
Sometimes I think we've all gone mad
People you trust
And haters you don't
Suddenly, they're both coming for you
Everyday
And it makes no sense
Wish it would all go away
But The Haters find what they're gonna find
They always do
And I'm not so sure anymore
Where I can go
Where The Safe Place is
To seek a thought
That doesn't strike in haste
Think eye for an eye
Or seek revenge

But no, no
Not so fast

I've been through rougher
Tougher
I've had my fill
But I never wished it back
And I never will
It's what they want, oh yeah
The Haters they come for
Vampire suicides
The Haters they keep on
Recruiting for the Dark Side
With sweet revenge or
Ways to avenge
I've come close to black
Sometimes you can't get back
Once you're there
In the lair
You don't care
Another one of the pack
Oh no oh no
I'll never be that man

Never be that man
Oh oh oh
No, I'll never be that man

You can chase me down
All over town
Scream a vicious rant
Kill my aunt
Promise me
Then recant
You can tear my house down
Steal everything
Propose to my love
Using my diamond ring
Use me
Refuse me
Mock and abuse me
I don't care
I'll never be that man

No matter what you do
No matter what you say
I'll take it all like Job anyway
But I'll never be that man
No oh oh
No no no

You can set the world on fire
Destroy all I desire
But I'm never gonna be that man

No, no
Never ever gonna be that man
No oh oh oh
I'll never be that man
