The Entity Songtext
von The Anxiety Effect

Well I′ve made my bed and slept in it
And I've never done anything that I′ve been told
I Play the game, while you hold all control
Cut these strings from within this prison
I am not living my life on parole
I'll quit the game, and you'll loose all control

Sometimes, you have to face the mirror
Sometimes you have to face your fear
The real world is out to fuck with me
And that′s when I felt the presence of the entity
It showed me, the ways that I could walk
It told, me the ways I need to talk
The right answers where always shared with me
Life is great in the presence of the entity


No more thinking that I am human
No more thinking my life is whole
I′ve joined the game, and you stole all control
I'm the lowest shit in existence
Just an empty shell, no thought, heart, or soul
This is the game that you proudly control

The one time I tried to break the chain
Gain self respect and be humane
I got told that nothings all I′ll ever be
Even if I stayed inside with the entity
No reason to stay and play the game
But I can't gain back control
All I do is hang my head in shame
It′s time, I have to make a change
Today's the day I break the mirror
Stand up and overcome this fear
Nothings ever gonna be the same for me
′Cause I plan to kill this mother fucking entity


No choice but to stay and play the game
Cause I want back my control
No one but myself is here to blame
And I know that this is all because of the entity
You are my only enemy
This is gonna be the end of me
You're gonna be the end of me
And I feel like there's no way out
My plan has failed and I can see that there′s no way out
Godfather, show me through the door that′s in front of me

God, I fucking despise you
But you still approach me
Hand in hand, bare the hug, grit the teeth
And pretend that I know, you're not the fucking entity
I stand before you
You stand before me
The first one to put the blade to the throat
Wins the game, takes the blame, and eliminates the shame

I get up, stand up, to fight
Now I′ve gained back control
Better run, better hide, better do what you can
Cause motherfucker, you're the entity and I′m playing God
No more thinking that am worthless
No more thinking that I am nothing
No more letting everybody down
Cause of every mother fuckin' thing the entity has done to me
Never find the feeling of depression
No more thoughts of suicide obsession
I am proud of who I am now
Cause of everything the mother fuckin′ entity has said to me
I'm a man, and more then you will ever be
I have seen the things that you will never see
I have this new lease on life
Cause of everything, cause of everything
Fuck you, you entity
