shut up

shut up, I know
I should be dancing on my own
manipulate
you know I'm afraid to be alone

I contemplate
the things I should already know
you yell, I plead
I find myself choking in your hold

it's about time you shut up
you're always picking me apart
just shut up
this game was built to break my heart
please shut up
I can't breathe when you torture me this way

What did you say?
your rigid frame betrays your lie
locked in your gaze
we're a burning fuse of dynamite

I can't recall
the last time we were alright
you have become
the drug that keeps me up at night

it's about time you shut up
you're always picking me apart
just shut up
this game was built to break my heart
please shut up
I can't breathe when you torture me this way

here I stay dying
your weight is upon me
you don't want me
but we're not through

lost in a haze
I live out your debate
the hollow
devastation of you
