I'd better be careful with what I say

One wrong word & all will change

Dialing a number in a darkened room

My heart is pounding, 'cause you might be coming soon

What makes you think you know what's good for me

There's so much goin' on that you can't see

Don't think you will ever make me like you

Whatever you do, I will undo "They're not like us!"

Who I'm with, where I go, and what I do

From now on, it's not up to you

You might push a few of us out of reach

But we're never gonna practice what you preach

All I know is this don't feel right to me

And I'm never gonna be what you want me to be

"They're not like us!"

"It's not like you've never done anything for me"

"Believe me, you've done more than enough"

"And you've given me plenty"

You gave me sight, you made me close my eyes

You gave me the truth, you taught me how to lie

You gave me this air that I can't breathe

You gave me a future I'm not sure I wanna see

You gave me hope, you made me insecure

You made me think that you had the only cure

You gave me horizons I'll never see

You gave me scars I'm sure that will never heal

You gave me faith, you made me doubt myself

You gave me the rope, you let me hang myself

You gave me something to be afraid of

You made me what I am today!

You gave the key, you made me lock the door

You gave me pain, you made me beg for more

You gave me this air that I can't breathe

You gave me a future I'm not sure I wanna see

You gave me strength, you made me feel so weak

You gave me the truth, you made me disbelieve

You gave me something to be afraid of

You made what I am today!
