lyrics

Forgive me but I have to be so rude,
I've been stamping down the fire holding back what I think of you
I was confused, with what I was seeing you do
I wonder what you do for a good time,
You sit around in circles telling tales of what you think it's like
You couldn't be, oh further from reality

What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down

Allow me to express myself for real
I've been holding onto feelings I can no longer conceal
Well I was polite, but now I don't know why in hindsight
I wonder why you went out of your way
To make your life a misery and watch it wilt away
When all I could have used was your confidence and truth

What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down

Listen you are older, you should know better
Could have used your shoulder and your better sense

What's it to you now
What we do and how
You've had all these years to throw around
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
These heavy words that bring me back down
