Lyrics

I don't need an education

I don't require formal education

I learnt all I need from you

I've learned everything essential from you

They've got me on some medication

I'm taking prescribed medication

My point of balance was askew

My emotional equilibrium was disrupted

It keeps my temperature from rising

The medication prevents my temperature from rising

My blood is pumping through my veins

My blood circulates actively through my veins


Somebody get me out of here

Feeling trapped, urgently seeking escape

I'm tearing at myself

Experiencing inner turmoil, self-harm

Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else

Perceiving a lack of concern for oneself and others


I wear myself out in the morning

Exhausting oneself early in the day

You're asleep when I get home

Partner is asleep upon returning home

Please don't call me self defending

Pleading not to be seen as defensively hostile

You know it cuts me to the bone

Expressions or actions hurt deeply

And it's really not surprising

Not surprising that intense emotions are uncontrollable

I hold a force I can't contain

Containing a powerful but uncontrollable force


Somebody get me out of here

Urgent plea for release from the current situation

I'm tearing at myself

Continued inner struggle and self-harm

Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else

Perception of apathy towards oneself and others


And still you call me co-dependent

Labeling as co-dependent despite efforts

Somehow you lay the blame on me

Blaming is placed on the speaker

And still you call me co-dependent

Continued blame despite efforts

Somehow you lay the blame on me

Responsibility placed on the speaker


Somebody get me out of here

Intense desire for liberation

I'm tearing at myself

Continued inner turmoil and self-harm

I've got to make a point these days

Aiming to assert oneself and break free

To extricate myself

Actively working to disentangle from the situation


Somebody get me out of here

Renewed plea for release from the current situation

I'm tearing at myself

Persisting inner turmoil and self-harm

Nobody gives a damn about me or anybody else

Perception of continued apathy towards oneself and others


And still you call me co-dependent

Reiteration of co-dependency label despite efforts

Somehow you lay the blame on me

Blame continues to be placed on the speaker

And still you call me co-dependent

Persistent responsibility placed on the speaker


Somehow you lay the blame on me [Repeat: x3]

Repetition of blame on the speaker
