lyrics

You know I’d rip my heart out if it meant you’d be happy
Sew it right on my sleeve and wear it like a Scarlet letter

You’ll indulge in me, when I pour into you
And when you’ve been quenched you’ll debate if I’m half full or empty

I guess it depends on your stance
Do you ever give back?
Do you take what you want?
Were you the only one to benefit?

Well I can’t keep up
I’m running out of energy
I’m my own power supply
But I’m not a generator

It’s pretty clear that I can never say “no”
I wish I could let down gently and let it all dissipate

The leeches seek out those convenient to them
Biting the hand that feeds and hoping they’ll get more in return

I think im I’m selling myself short
And it’s the ultimate sacrifice
And there is no reward
Except for when you tell me that I’m “nice”

You call it symbiotic
But I call it toxic
Yet the cycle repeats
Cuz its my inner nature to please

And I’m so tired of picking up the pieces of others
While they’re taking parts of me
