What you gave me, I know you gave me
|
You remind me all the time
|
And how you hurt me and you don't see it
|
Again, I am the child
|
And though you tell me that you love me
|
I can't feel it and I'm afraid to let you down
|
It's all or nothing, I fear that something's wrong
|
|
I'm tired of walking on eggshells, so terrified to fail
|
And in order to please you I've abandoned myself
|
And though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away
|
I'm stronger than ever, you made me this way
|
|
How I wish you, you suffered less too
|
It tears us both apart
|
And it's not pretty, the way you criticize me
|
And how it breaks my heart
|
|
And though you tell me that you love me
|
I can't feel it and I'm afraid to let you down
|
It's all or nothing, I fear that something's wrong
|
|
I'm tired of walking on eggshells, so terrified to fail
|
And in order to please you I've abandoned myself
|
And though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away
|
I'm stronger than ever, you made me this way
|
|
How I wish you knew, how much I need you
|
I feel like running but I can't abandon you
|
You avoid my gaze, withdraw from me these days
|
You punish me for trying to be all that you wanted
|
What more can I do?
|
|
I'm tired of walking on eggshells, so terrified to fail
|
And in order to please you I've abandoned myself
|
And though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away
|
I'm stronger than ever, you made me this way
|
|
I'm tired of walking on eggshells, so terrified to fail
|
And in order to please you I've abandoned myself
|
And though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away
|
I'm stronger than ever, you made me this way
