Army of Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been standing where you left me (Left me)
Praying that you'd come and get me (Get me)
But now I've found my second wind (Wind, uh)
Now I've found my second skin (Skin)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, I know what you were thinking
You thought you'd watch me fade away (Away)
When you broke me into pieces
But I gave each piece a name (A name)

[Chorus]
One of me is wiser
One of me is stronger
One of me's a fighter
And there's a thousand faces of me
And we're gonna rise up
Yeah, we're gonna rise up
For every time you wronged me
Well, you're gonna face an army, army of me

[Verse 2]
Welcome to my revolution (Revolution, ha)
All your walls are breaking down (Down, mm)
It's time you had a taste of losing (Losing, ah)
Time the tables turned around ('Round, yeah)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I see a glimpse of recognition
But it's too little, it's too late (It's too late)
And what you thought was your best decision (Ah)
Just became your worst mistake (Mistake)

[Chorus]
One of me is wiser
One of me is stronger
One of me's a fighter
And there's a thousand faces of me
And we're gonna rise up
Yeah, we're gonna rise up
For every time you wronged me (Ha)
Well, you're gonna face an army, army of me

[Bridge]
So how does it feel
To know that I beat you?
That I can defeat you
Oh, how does it feel?
'Cause it sure feels sweeter
It sure feels sweeter to me

[Chorus]
Now that I am wiser
Now that I am stronger
Now that I'm a, a fighter (Ha)
There's a thousand faces of me
And I'm gonna rise up (I'm gonna rise up)
Yeah, I'm gonna rise up (yeah, I'm gonna rise up)
For every time you wronged me (you wronged me, hey)
There's a thousand faces of me (Hey)
Yeah, I'm gonna rise up (rise up)
Yeah, I'm gonna rise up (rise up)
For every time you wronged me (For every time you wronged me)
Now you're gonna face an army
Army of me (Army of me)
