You cut me down, I cut you out, Skipped town, On a red eye flight Never could be something perfect in your eyes Never let me shine my own true light Despite of you I'm gonna be alright And you'll never bring me down, You moved in, to a premade family by numbers Coloured in the numbers you liked Left me empty, and blank, Nothing more than a number on a page Never could be something perfect in your eyes Too many wrong roads, too many wrong songs Despite you, I'll get mine And I'll never let you bring me down, to the ground Don’t go calling me anymore, You left the tree, right where it stood I grabbed my slippers and the half smoked joint You made your bed; I slammed the door Keep counting your greed You will not buy me I never needed money, I just wanted you around I’m doing alright, I’m getting mine Without you, Without your love
