You once cut a friendly figure haunting and bereft
Now you cast an ugly shadow guilty and obsessed
So why must you always play the victim
It's time that I wasn't your hero
I've got troubles of my own that you used to care for
Now all I desire is to run so far away
From those open and angry arms
I am not your possession
Now I once tried to love you dearly, compromised my heart
But I paid the price and clearly I have played my part
So cry if you want to but the blood runs cold
Cold to the touch and cold to your bones
I shudder from your empty tears now
Call me anything you want to justify this situation
That's all in your mind now
Come on be a man about it so
Why tell the truth
When it's easier to put the blame on you
I was bored with no hope
But I always hang myself with the same rope
Now I dress in sorry silence wearing all my pain
Now you think you're caving in
Well violence is my friend
So how can you blame this all upon me
I tried but my patience is wearing
Thin and as I give you keep on taking
Take me off the pedestal that you've created
And you'll see that now you
Hate me is this the only way?
So Why tell the truth
When it's easier to put the blame on you
I was bored with no hope
But I always hang myself with the same rope
So why must you always play the victim
It's time that I wasn't your hero
I've got troubles of my own that you used to care for
Now all I desire is to run so far away
From those open and angry arms
I am not your possession
Why tell the truth
When it's easier to put the blame on you
I was bored with no hope
But I always hang myself with the same rope
