Lyrics

    I was there in the back stage,
    When the first light came around.
    I grew up like a changeling,
    To win the first time around.
    I can see all the weakness.
    I can pick all the faults.
    Well I concede all the faith tests,
    Just to stick in your throats.
    
    31G, 31G, 31G
    
    I hung around in your soundtrack,
    To mirror all that you've done,
    To find the right side of reason,
    To kill the three lies for one,
    I can see all the cold facts.
    I can see through your eyes.
    All this talk made no contact.
    No matter how hard we tried.
    
    31G, 31G, 31G
    
    I can still hear the footsteps.
    I can see only walls.
    I slid into your man-traps,
    With no hearing at all.
    I just see contradiction,
    Had to give up the fight,
    Just to live in the past tense,
    To make believe you were right.
    
    31G, 31G, 31G
