Lyrics
I help you
You hurt me
I hold you
You crush me
This feeling
So lonely
I Won?t let you
Control me
You?re messing with my mind
You?re taking up my god damn time
You?re gnawing at my spine
Don?t take what?s inside
No no
Your smile
Disgusts me
Your voice
Erupts me
Your presence
Just screws me
I refuse to
Let you touch me
I?m losing all my rhyme
You?re robbing me of my prime
This energy inside
If I could get away with
What you can get away with
I?d make you feel
Just how I feel
And then you?d crumble up and cry
Does your mama know your insides?
The truth you know how to hide
One day you surely will find
Your face won?t be in my mind
Anymore
No more
I refuse to
Let you bother me
Excuse you
Why are you following me?
It?s over
I?ve had my cry
Now it?s your turn
My eyes are now dry
You?re messing with my mind
You?re taking up my god damn time
You?re gnawing at my spine
If I could get away with
What you can get away with
I?d make you feel
Just how I feel
And then you?d crumble up and cry
Does your mama know your insides?
The truth you know how to hide
One day you surely will find
Your face won?t be in my mind
You?re messing with my mind
You?re taking up my god damn time
You?re gnawing at my spine
You cannot have what is inside
