I got a letter today
It said that I’m slacking off, I’m not earning my pay
Well I take issue with this
Because I don’t think I should have to put up with this shit
From everything I’m going through to all that I’ve done for you
And this is how you’re gonna turn it for you
Well I would never believe
Could never conceive the way you’ve treated me’s obscene
And I will never be free
As long as you keep this fucking leash wrapped around me
Well if you want to leave this here well that’s totally up to you
But just you wait and see what’s coming to you
You wanna break the spirit inside of me
You wanna break the feeling of pride in me
You wanna break the spirit alive in me
You wanna break
So this is your best solution after all I’ve done for you?
You try to break me down, well I’m breaking through
You’ll never break the spirit inside of me
You’ll never break this feeling of pride in me
You’ll never break the spirit alive in me
You’ll never break.
Suki was a kid
She went to art school
Took a ton of pills
And drowned in the pill
When he told the dad he broke down and cried
When he told the mom she broke down and lied
Don’t tell Billy
Don’t tell Billy
Tony was a kid, he went to Florence
Took a couple tabs and called his parents
When he told the dad he broke down and cried
When he told the mom she broke down and lied
Don’t tell Billy
Don’t tell Billy
If what doesn’t kill you would strengthen your heart
Why does it feel like I’m falling apart?
Would you hold my head down so I can’t see myself go?
You walked into my life, I’ll never forget
A moment of pleasure, a life of regret
Would you hold my head down so I can’t see myself go?
Find what it is that you love, let it kill you
Take a prayer from above to satiate you
And you’ll find what you want, but I won’t so
Don’t let me,
Don’t make me,
Don’t have me go out like this
We always said we could do what we want
But this thing takes confidence I haven’t got
Would you hold my head down so I can’t see myself go?
You walked into my life, a curious wand
Wraps arms around me and sings me a song
And it holds my head down so I can’t see myself go
Find what it is that you love, let it kill you
Take a prayer from above to satiate you
And you’ll find what you want, but I won’t so
Don’t let me,
Don’t make me,
Don’t have me go out like this
Some people say if you leave them alone then they’re
bound to bounce back and come ‘round on their own, but they’re
Tired of begging and borrowing and stealing and
Tired of mourning and caring and feeling and
Some people keep looking over their shoulder and
Some are just bound to get older and older and
I’ll keep on burning this eternal fire cause
Your love is taking me higher and higher and
Find what it is that you love, let it kill you
Take a prayer from above to satiate you
And you’ll find what you want, but I won’t
I’m living and breathing and kicking and screaming
I’m still alive
I remember when I tried to figure out all the plans that I failed to make
Do it over once
Do it over twice, my God
Did you ever see you as the target of all the hearts that I failed to break?
Do it over once
Do it over twice, my God
Now it’s a mechanical wonder
(And you’ll leave me out to dry)
Well I’m a critical thinker, yeah
(And you’ll leave me wondering why)
But I’m a miracle maker
(And if I make it out alive)
Well she’s just hysterical, so take her
(Let it die, enough tonight)
Do you remember when you got wasted?
Bent and jaded, torn and faded
Do it over once,
Do it over twice, my God
Hit the bottle when our tempers rise
Learn to scream when no one hears our cries
Do it over twice
That’ll make it thrice, my God
And I was wishing I was still nineteen
Wishing I was not abandoning belief
I don’t wanna know, I don’t wanna know,
I don’t wanna know, I don’t wanna know
Now it’s a mechanical wonder
(And I’ll leave you out to dry)
Well I’m a critical thinker, yeah
(And I’ll leave you wondering why)
But I’m a miracle maker
(And if you make it out alive)
Well she’s just hysterical, so take her
(Let it die)
