lyrics

Easy to cheat, easy to lie
Easy to break, easy to cry
Easy to run, easy to hide
everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

Easy to judge, easy to hate
Easy to hurt, easy to blame
Easy to use, easy to take
everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

I wanna be angry
I wanna be diving in
I wanna be angry
I wanna fight
I wanna play to win

OH I'm drowning in red
it's coming to a head
but I would rather be a light instead

Easy to tease, easy to talk
Easy to pick, easy to knock
Easy to sit, easy to watch
everybody's fighting and fighting and fighting

I wanna be angry
I wanna be diving in
I wanna be angry
I wanna fight
I wanna play to win

OH I'm drowning in red
it's coming to a head
but I would rather be a light instead

I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be
I'm so angry


OH I'm drowning in red
it's coming to a head
but I would rather be a light
OH I'm drowning in red
it's coming to a head
but I would rather be a light
OH I'm drowning in blue
I'm gonna follow through
I would rather be a light for you
