Lyrics
You want me
You desire me
You need me
You depend on me
You know nothing about me
You lack understanding about who I am
Pretty thing
Referring to oneself as attractive
Un-needed
Not required or unwanted
Part of the collective
Being a part of a larger group or society
If I knew what would become of it
If I had foreseen the consequences
I would have climbed out just as fast as I dove
I would have escaped quickly as I immersed myself
Want to see if I bleed
Curious to test if I am vulnerable
Won't let you destroy me
I won't allow you to harm or defeat me
What's it like to simply breathe and be respected
Desire to experience a simple, respected existence
I tried to open my heart and look where it got me now
Attempted to open up emotionally, facing negative consequences
I've been lost but now I've found a new perspective
Was once lost, now embracing a new viewpoint
It's a shame that you're stuck in the same old state of mind
Regrettable that you're stuck in an unchanging mindset
A friendly hand extended out seemed harmless on the outside
A seemingly friendly gesture had hidden harmful intentions
Buried beneath were carnal teeth that ripped apart my insides
Beneath the surface, there were destructive forces tearing me apart
Taking back the part of me that they told me to hide
Reclaiming the suppressed part of myself
It hurt at first but then I learned that who I am is right
Initially painful, but realizing the authenticity of who I am
What's it like to simply breathe and be respected
Desire for a life where breathing is natural and respect is given
I tried to open my heart and look where it got me now
Past attempts to open up led to current undesirable situations
I've been lost but now I've found a new perspective
Having found a new and positive perspective after being lost
It's a shame that you're stuck in the same old state of mind
Pity that you remain trapped in a stagnant mentality
Why don't I why don't I why don't I
Expressing uncertainty or questioning
Return the favor
Considering reciprocating actions
Take control
Asserting the desire to take control
Why don't I why don't I why don't I
Questioning the hesitancy to pursue personal goals
Break you to reach my goal
Expressing a willingness to break barriers to achieve objectives
Why don't I why don't I why don't I
Pondering the choice to cause pain and assume a dominating role
Make it painful play that role
Contemplating inflicting pain as a means of control
Why don't I why don't I why don't I
Repeating the questioning of one's own actions
Take what hurts the most
Suggesting a willingness to take what causes the most pain
