Use my own mind
Against me
Use my body
And have me say thank you
Tell me you'll leave
But keep calling me
Tell me you love me
But enforce your control
Cut me off
Say I never listen
Tell me I'm replaceable
but never let me free
Make me responsible
For your own emotions
But shame me for mine
Tell me you care
But show me you don't
Tell me I'm trash
Keep asking for more
Love me like you hate yourself
Make me feel shame
So you can't see yours
Break my self esteem
Steal my energy
Keep asking for more
Tell me I use you
Offer help that doesn't work
Blame me for it not working
Start a scene
Whenever I talk back
Tell everybody
I'm the crazy one
You might be perfect
In your little mind
I'm done playing games
Have fun by yourself

Use my own mind
Against me
Use my body
And have me say thank you
Tell me you'll leave
But keep calling me
Tell me you love me
But enforce your control
Cut me off
Say I never listen
Tell me I'm replaceable
but never let me free
Make me responsible
For your own emotions
But shame me for mine
Tell me you care
But show me you don't
Tell me I'm trash
Keep asking for more
Love me like you hate yourself
Make me feel shame
So you can't see yours
Break my self esteem
Steal my energy
Keep asking for more
Tell me I use you
Offer help that doesn't work
Blame me for it not working
Start a scene
Whenever I talk back
Tell everybody
I'm the crazy one
You might be perfect
In your little mind
I'm done playing games
Have fun by yourself
Is.... Is that peace I'm feeling ?
