lyrics

I've been replacing some perfect things
With pressured choices persuaded by the smirk on your face
Because 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
And now you've broken through the surface
And I won't let you take what's underneath
My skin and my thoughts
The only sense of self that I still got

You think you've got me around your finger
Well I can tell you think I'm slipping off
Because 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 fucking ego's the one thing left under your care

What am I to say
You take advantage of my blatant fears
Of being 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 and 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
