Lyrics for Like It or Not
Everyone walks to a certain point then turns around; how far you go just depends on the time that you got. Time is a killer like its good buddies love, light and sound. There鈥檚 not enough room for us both here, like it or not. Everyone smiles when they see something rendered with justice. Everyone laughs to dispel something bound up inside. Everyone cries when we feel like nobody trusts us. Everyone dies in the end so there鈥檚 nothing to hide. Like it or not, I鈥檓 singing destruction! Like it or not, I鈥檓 happy today! Rise up and remember your golden instruction! The end of the world isn鈥檛 going away. Everyone likes to feel needed and needs to feel wanted. Everyone hopes to one day find home in the end. Everyone鈥檚 dream is to walk among others undaunted. I wish you joy and heaven and freedom my friend. Breaking my heart will be done many times then it鈥檚 over. You may not find me when you come to knock on my door. Change is a constant and so I am constantly changing. When the smoke clears and you look around, I鈥檓 not there anymore. Like it or not, I鈥檓 disruption. Like it or not, you鈥檙e insulated wire obeying the rules of electric conduction while the rest of us set life on fire. Like it or not. And I like it and I like it and I like it quite a lot. Say goodbye to friends and family, you鈥檙e coming with me . . . like it or not. Like it or not, I鈥檓 deconstruction. Like it or not, I鈥檓 blowing you apart. Brace yourself for ecstatic eruption from the volcanic core of your heart, like it or not.
