lyrics

I am the underdog
Tears from a demigod
Cast aside and forgotten
Until you need to use my dirty hands
Until you need to use me again

What can I do
To get respect from you
I’m just a drug addict
An alcoholic
The one you blame

I’m the piece of shit
That makes your world smell good
I’m the darkness the light
That gives you contrast to know
What’s bullshit

I'm the one
That will stand behind you
When everyone’s run away
I’m the one
That will walk into the fire
When you say

I’m the underdog
I’m the pain in your side
While your days are full of laughter
I sat around and suffered inside

I’m the one that shows up
When you call my name
I’m the one
That will get his hands dirty
Digging graves
Just to keep your white clothes
From getting so soiled and stained
I’m the one
That cleans up the bloody mess
That you’ve made

Cast aside and forgotten
Until you need to use my bloody hands
Again
God damn

I am a frozen explosion
The erosion of your illusions
All that stands between you and your failure
The nail your driving into your coffin
The name you call just a little too often
The breaking point
between you
and your weakest moment
You will deny it
But I will own it
The mixed breed
The object if your envy
The only one left immune to the fear
the only one solid when everything is clear

The last one solid when everything is clear


"since the birth of this planet a memory has become deeply engraved onti the genes of all living things, a memory of aggression as a means of survival, a memory of fighting, a memory to fight

I am the Underdog
I live outside of the law
I’ve walked a mile in your shoes
Just to throw them off the scent of you

I'm the one you call before you walk
Through any dark place
When they laugh
I am the one to slap the smile off of their face
Still you do not appreciate
They way i made my name
So i crawl back into the hole
In the ground, from where i came!
