about

This is a relatively new song. It's about how some people try to change you just to feel powerful or dominant. What's scary is lots of people can do this with or without knowing it. For some it's become such a habit they don't even realize it. Don't change yourself for anyone. There's a difference between giving advice and manipulatively scaring someone into changing for your benefit, and that's a fucked up thing for someone to do to you. Be you, and be true to you. This is really cliche advice but its good advice. Am I making sense right now? It like 2 in the morning and I'm really tired and I shouldn't be typing right now. Anyway, here's a song, woo

lyrics

I'm been replacing some perfect things
with pressured choices persuaded by the smirk on your face
Cause I just wanna change your expression
You tell me how you think I should be
selfish desires for control passed on as trying to be friendly
Well I can see through your intentions

Maybe I'm just tired of every fucking word you speak
You've broken through the surface
Well I won't let you take whats underneath my skin, my thoughts
the only sense of self that I've still got

You think you've got me around your finger
Well I can tell you think I'm slipping off
Cause you've been so much worse lately and I know you're scared
That I'll develop a mind of my own
one that can hold off your complacent tones
Your fuckin ego's the one thing left under your care

What am I to say
You take advantage of my blatant fears of
feeling even more stuck in the gutter
so when can I stop pretending I'm not

I've got a lot of things to say, but you'll never hear me speak
I'm putting messages in bottles that you'll never get to read
because I threw them in the ocean instead of leaving them at your door
Well I'm sorry I displease you
I'm sorry I'm a fraud
And I'm not the fucking puppet that you made me think I was
I'm sorry I've conditioned you into thinking you're the king of the world
