My Voice

Leave me out
 Of any games you play
 Just let me walk away
 If you settle things down
 Let me go in peace
 I try to spread my love all around
 'Cause your dirty secrets
 Have turned me into a dirty lie
 I know everything that you ever said
 Was just to ease my mind
 When I got caught
 Inside your web
 It was taking me over
 You were leaving me under the ground
 With my voice, With my hands
 I will do anything that I want to do with them
 It's my choice, And they're my demands
 They are strong enough to break the skin
 Now that you're gone
 I don't need much of anything
 That you have for me anymore
 You left me alone
 But then I suppose
 That's just the way my story goes
 'Cause these dirty feelings
 Have pushed me over the line
 Know that all the things that you ever did
 Will kick your ass in time
 When I break free
 From your linked chains
 That were taking me over
 They were keeping me under the ground
 With my voice, With my hands
 I will do anything that I want to do with them
 It's my choice, And they're my demands
 They are strong enough to break the skin
 I've figured out my weaknesses
 And so I hide them from you
 Every time you come around
 I feel it's all that I can do
 There's a nervousness that comes with this
 But I cannot describe it
 So I hide out in the basement,
 in an alley where it's dark and cold and you can never
 Find me there.
 But now that I'm stronger
 I will shout it out loud
 You were taking me over
 But now I'm rising over the crowd
 With my voice, With my hands
 I will do anything that I want to do with them
 It's my choice, And they're my demands
 They are strong enough to break the skin
