Lyrics
|
There are just too many times that people have tried to look inside of me
|
Wondering what I think of you and I protect you out of courtesy
|
Too many times that I've held on when I needed to push away
|
Afraid to say what was on my mind, afraid to say what I need to say
|
Too many things that you said about me when I'm not around
|
You think having the upper-hand means you gotta keep putting me down
|
But I've had too many standoffs with you
|
It's about as much as I can stand
|
So I'm waiting until the upper-hand is mine
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, watch it drop)
|
Making your heart stop
|
Just before you hit the floor
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, missed your shot)
|
Making your heart stop
|
You think you've won
|
And then it's all gone
|
So many people like me put so much trust in all your lies
|
So concerned with what you think to just say what we feel inside
|
So many people like me walk on eggshells all day long
|
All I know is that all I want is to feel like I'm not stepped on
|
There are so many things you say that make me feel you cross the line
|
What goes up will surely fall and I'm counting down the time
|
'Cause I've had too many standoffs with you
|
It's about as much as I can stand
|
So I'm waiting until the upper-hand is mine
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, watch it drop)
|
Making your heart stop
|
Just before you hit the floor
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, missed your shot)
|
Making your heart stop
|
You think you've won
|
And then it's all gone (x4)
|
Now it's all gone
|
I know I'll never trust a single thing you say
|
You knew your lies would divide us but you lied anyway
|
And all the lies have got you floating up above us all
|
But what goes up has got to fall
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, watch it drop)
|
Making your heart stop
|
Just before you hit the floor
|
One minute you're on top
|
(The next you're not, missed your shot)
|
Making your heart stop
|
You think you've won
|
And then it's all gone (x4)
|
Now it's all gone
|
