I’m the victim of a perfect crime
I didn’t even know
Somebody out there took all my time
Easy come, easy go
Pay attention
Open up your eyes
Or you’ll never recognize the devil in disguise
Hold tight to the
Things that you adore
Because a criminal keeps coming back for more
I’m working way too much
And you might think I’m out of touch
I’m in too deep to take a dive
I’m too alive
I been diggin’ on a brand new vibe
Don’t ask me to explain
A new sensation that I can’t describe
But it keeps me entertained
I can’t define it
I wish I could
But I recognize it when I’m onto something good
A bit of mana
from lips of the divine
You couldn’t understand it even if you tried
I’ve worked for much too long
I’m almost right where I belong
I’m not content to just survive
I’m too alive
I’m overcome
With a sense of certainty
I’m all-in with the devotees
I’m afflicted with a shiny new disease,
I’m a people pleaser, people
Let me please
I’ve fought for far too long
I’m finally right where I belong
Looks like my moment has arrived
I’m too alive
