They tell me there's a world out there
That I don't see at all
I will not witness miracles
Behind these empty walls
The truth connects us to the ones
We all pretend to be
And I can promise you, my friend
You don't belong to me
Hey now, we're not losing ground
We're just caught up in a delicate mess
Hey now, I'm going straight down
Down with the wicked
The guilty throwing negatives
Says you have lost your spark
I loved not who they said you were
But for your angry heart
All those knives stuck in your back
You don't have time to free
Too busy making alibis
That only fools believe
Hey now, you're not losing ground
You're just caught up in a delicate mess
Please don't think I'm cynical
Or that I'm trapped here
In some fake innocence
Should I give in?
Or do I let nothing in?
Is it better to be silent than confess?
Hey now, hey now, hey now
I'm going straight down
Down with the wicked
Hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
Hey now, hey now
I'm going straight down
Down with the wicked
Yeah, you're not losing ground
Yeah, you're not losing ground
Yeah, you're not losing ground
You're not losing ground
I'm going straight down
Down with the wicked
I'm going straight down
Down with the wicked
