Envy

I see them shining, brighter than me Holding the dreams that I can't reach It's in their hands, and slipping from mine A bitter taste, I try to hide I built my walls, I stood so tall But now I feel them start to fall Behind the mask, I'm breaking down The truth, it cuts me from the crowd Envy, envy- it's burning me alive Why can't I be the one to rise? I watch them climb while I stand still Envy, envy- it's breaking my will I want it all, but I can't fight The green-eyed monster in the night The green-eyed monster in the night I can't stop it, it's in my veins Every victory brings me more pain I'm chasing shadows, I lose my way Envy consumes me, day by day Envy, envy- it's burning me alive Why can't I be the one to rise? I watch them climb while I stand still Envy, envy- it's breaking my will I want it all, but I can't fight The green-eyed monster in the night The green-eyed monster in the night
