No More

It kills me that every time I talk
to you I have to bite my tongue
so the wrong words don't spill out of my
mouth.

Do you not think before you speak, or
watch how the things you say can tear me
down.

 
No more, do I have to live
under your control
No more, am I taking part in
your placebo
I've cut the chains around my neck
Don't worry I'm not coming back
No more!
(chorus)

 
The weight on my shoulders is unbearable
And I no longer feel unbreakable
because somehow you have managed to find
your way inside.

I stuff all my problems into a bottle
and swallow them until I'm in control
of everything for the time being, until
the next night.

 
-Chorus-

 
No more, no more, no more, no more
Cause I'm not coming back!

 

-Chorus-
