It started with a look so innocently
Then you spread it like a filthy disease
It won’t be long until they figure you out
You ain’t worth nothing but a quick in and out
Yeah it’s the start, the end, to bringing you down
So you can stop pretending that you’re wearing that crown

It can’t be healthy for your mind, living this lie

Honey this could be your wake up call
You’re not so special after all
You know you’re running in shadows, and chasing a dream
Don’t pretend you don’t know, when you’ve seen what you’ve seen

You’re just like a leech

Another lovely little story to tell, when you were so convinced
That the time, you spent, down on your knees
Would earn you love and respect from those easy to please

It can’t be healthy for your mind, living this lie

Honey this could be your wake up call
You’re not so special after all
You know you’re running in shadows, and chasing a dream
Don’t pretend you don’t know, when you’ve seen what you’ve seen

You never fail to achieve, to suck the life out of me
How do you never see, that you’re just like a leech
Leech, leech, leech, leech
You suck the life out of me; you’re just like a leech

You know you’re running in shadows, and chasing a dream
Don’t pretend you don’t know
Don’t pretend you don’t know

Honey this could be your wake up call
You’re not so special after all
You know you’re running in shadows, and chasing a dream
Don’t pretend you don’t know, when you’ve seen what you’ve seen

You know you’re running in shadows
And chasing a dream

You’re a leech
