Lyrics
Verse 1
I think I understand why you torture me
You set me up so you can watch me fall
I've never hurt you - I'm alive to boost your ego
You shred my self-esteem and leave me lying on the floor
Chorus
And I bleed to wash away your pain
To make you feel stronger when you're insecure
And I breathe the oxygen you need
You know you feed your fire with me
I'm the answer to your problems baby
Verse 2
I hate to hate you - I always hope you'll change
But I know that you're enjoying toying with me
You want to win this game - breaking your only equal
I adore you and you're destroying me

> Breakdown
