Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ooh, I don't owe this world a goddamn thing So keep holding your breath for some apology You better look me in the eyes when you're talking to me To see the sorrow sacrificed before you judge how I dream Well, if you want my respect, just know it don't come cheap A man pays with his soul for the price of his wings I paid decades of dues, and did my time in the streets So now no man's opinion means a fuck to me [Chorus] Don't tell me this is only make believe Or my psychotic type of fantasy You thought that this was really happening I doubt I will wake up tomorrow night There's a side of me you'll never see A place of pain buried underneath I've sacrificed everything Only to find tomorrow never comes [Verse 2] You could shoot me dead, but you'll remember my name I'll never be your bitch, and I'm no man's slave A once heart of gold, tarnished and rusted away Am I on top of the world? Sometimes it's hard to say [Chorus] Don't tell me this is only make believe Or my psychotic type of fantasy You thought that this was really happening I doubt I will wake up tomorrow night There's a side of me you'll never see A place of pain buried underneath I've sacrificed everything Only to find tomorrow never comes [Bridge] Up in smoke Down in flames As the bombs fall Crashing over me [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Don't tell me this is only make believe Or my psychotic type of fantasy You thought that this was really happening I doubt I will wake up tomorrow night There's a side of me you'll never see A place of pain buried underneath I've sacrificed everything Only to find tomorrow never comes Don't tell me this is only make believe Or my psychotic type of fantasy You thought that this was really happening I doubt I will wake up tomorrow night There's a side of me you'll never see A place of pain buried underneath I've sacrificed everything Only to find tomorrow never comes [Outro] Up in smoke Down in flames As the bombs fall Crashing over me
