Under My Own BreathThis set of circumstances, be it far from normal for meIt has taught a lesson that I hoped I would never see It makes me sick to think that your way was the one I chose to look And it makes it hard to believe that your advice was what I once took. Show me a shred of decency and I'll show you what it's like to have a heart. Your inability to mask your faults was clear from the start Don't talk to me about understanding, been a part of this for too long. Your ways are too demanding, you don't know worse from wrong. Spent too much time preparing, perfecting what I have come to love Your course of ulterior motives is shown now that a push has come to shove Where do you get off throwing propositions my way I've worked too hard at this Secretly making an attempt at having a say With one hand tied to the other, constantly struggling to try Pretending to not mind your place in my life wishing you would die Always - minding - my own - problems and faults Learning - from what - I've been shown Never - turning- back on - what I've stood for Where do you get off throwing propositions my way I've worked too hard at this Subliminally making an attempt at having a say With one hand tied to the other, constantly struggling to try Pretending to not mind your place in my life wishing you would die wishing you would die If there's one thing that this part of my life has taught me It's that the best advice is never given willingly I could sail all the seven seas, I could walk myself to death But I know the best advice would still be said under my own breath |
