You push me down again and again
Make me lonely and sad
You tell me lies
I now believe is the truth
I live my life
The way that you dictate
To scared to move away

Am I doomed to spend my life living in the shadows of another person’s dreams?
Does it make you feel better?
Does it make you feel whole?
When will you just leave me alone?
Alone in the dark the one place I feel safe
Far from your words
That cut me like a knife

Is it too much to ask?
To be allowed to be left alone?
To crawl out of this pit of misery you put me in?
When will I be allowed to leave this hell?
When will my life begin?

I don’t understand how you can be so mean?
And thrive off my insecurities?
I want to be safe
I want to be loved
And somehow I don’t think that will be

I know there's a place in my future and past
Where I wont have to deal with you
But right now I'm here
And I just have to get through
Be strong and maybe I will win.
