At Lightspeed - Lyrics - You And What Army

I was never one to make the same mistake twice I was never one to wait and waste my life. But, sometimes you SLIP UP Sometimes you THINK TOO MUCH I started second guessing every lesson I had learned It was turning to obsession when I heard their words They said, you can't change the world No, you can't change the world I'd got to stop before I dropped the ball Before I lost face and then I lost it all In retrospect I regret that I meant it But never again because I can't take this If you BUILD IT UP, I will BREAK IT DOWN, You can't change the world And I can't TAKE THIS Come on, you can't run Come on, you can't hide I can't change the world But I DON'T NEED THIS (x2) Reliving the past, That's where I excel Regretting, forgetting it and I will BURN IN HELL Sometimes, LIFE'S TOO SLOW Sometimes YOU CAN'T LET GO I was beginning to think, That I preferred what I heard, Echoing in my head again and, I heard their words, they said, You can't change the world, No, you can't change the world, I'd got to stop before I took the bait Before I lost face and then felt the weight of the world, dragging me into this abyss but Never again because I DON'T NEED THIS, If you BUILD IT UP, I will BREAK IT DOWN, You can't change the world And I can't TAKE THIS Come on, you can't run Come on, you can't hide I can't change the world But I DON'T NEED THIS (x2) I can't take this (x8) Everything I've ever believed or attempted, Disintegrated into hypothetical thought and everything that I ever had an incentive for, May just as well have never been born, and, Everything that anyone ever achieved, Will be remembered as nothing more than WHAT IF? And every time I listened by myself I will hear The words You can't change the world and, I'll scream back to them, I CAN'T TAKE THIS!
