My Voice

Leave me out
Of any games you play
Just let me walk away
If you settle things down
Let me go in peace
I try to spread my love all around
'Cause your dirty secrets
Have turned me into a dirty lie
I know everything that you ever said
Was just to ease my mind
When I got caught
Inside your web
It was taking me over
You were leaving me under the ground
With my voice, With my hands
I will do anything that I want to do with them
It's my choice, And they're my demands
They are strong enough to break the skin
Now that you're gone
I don't need much of anything
That you have for me anymore
You left me alone
But then I suppose
That's just the way my story goes
'Cause these dirty feelings
Have pushed me over the line
Know that all the things that you ever did
Will kick your ass in time
When I break free
From your linked chains
That were taking me over
They were keeping me under the ground
With my voice, With my hands
I will do anything that I want to do with them
It's my choice, And they're my demands
They are strong enough to break the skin
I've figured out my weaknesses
And so I hide them from you
Every time you come around
I feel it's all that I can do
There's a nervousness that comes with this
But I cannot describe it
So I hide out in the basement,
In an alley where it's dark and cold and you can never
Find me there.
But now that I'm stronger
I will shout it out loud
You were taking me over
But now I'm rising over the crowd
With my voice, With my hands
I will do anything that I want to do with them
It's my choice, And they're my demands
They are strong enough to break the skin
