[Verse 1]
Rage that burns, can't push it aside now
Can't forgive, this grudge is alive now
All the rage eats you up inside

[Refrain]
Can you leave it behind?
Leave it behind

[Verse 2]
What a surprise, you're fucked with again, yeah!
It's a way of life you need to get over
All the rage just eats you alive

[Refrain]
Can you leave it behind?
Leave it behind

[Chorus]
I don't know where it'll end
The sun has set and I can't be friends
I don't know if I can forgive
The day is long, but you were so dead wrong

[Verse 3]
What a surprise, you're fucked with again, yeah!
It's a way of life you need to get over
All the rage just eats you alive

[Refrain]
Can you leave it behind?
Leave it behind

[Chorus]
I don't know where it'll end
The sun has set and I can't be friends
I don't know if I can forgive
The day is long, but you were so dead wrong

[Outro]
I don't know where it'll end
The sun has set and I can't be friends
I don't know if I can forgive
The day is long, but you were so dead wrong
