My Heart is a Fist by Papa Roach
I surrender, i know i've been a pretender
You can have this guilt this misery i wear so well
I wave my flag i sound the alarm
Somebody stop me before i do any harm
I surrender i know i've been a pretender
I'm living a dead life i'm staring into the headlights
Of a gateway car that'll take me out of my mind tonight
Crash and burn s.o.s. somebody help me get out of this mess of a dead life
I'm burning under the spotlight
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will fight again
My heart is a fist drenched in blood
My soul will rise again
Take a look at these hollow eyes- one last look before i say goodbye
To this candle-lit nightmare i feel like can never escape
So watch me fall from grace-watch me carve my hate
In the heart of a lover i feel i can never escape my fate
I see you on your cloud looking down
I am on my knees today but you don't notice me
You don't notice me
I'm screaming while i pray
While i pray
While i pray
You don't notice me
I'm sick of you...
I am done with you...

I love this song so much because I can really relate to it at the moment.
I love the images created by the lyrics..such as the reference to a getaway car and staring into the spotlight..cause that makes you think of an interrogation, and that's how the singer feels..
I also like the big about giving up on God, who is sitting on his cloud and not listening even though he is screaming at him for help. I don't believe in God but there have been plenty of times when I've screamed at nothing hoping that something will help me...
it doesn't necessarily literally mean God, it could mean a person the singer reveres as a god who has power over him but turns a blind eye.
