The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It can come from out of nowhere
Hit you when you're safe and warm
Take it easy my star
Your time is gonna come (your time is gonna come)
Yah you've got those crazy blue eyes
Yah you've got those crazy blues
All those pretty smiles
I can see them laughing at you
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
(whoa)
I dont wanna be your punching bag
Your complacent little princess all tragic and sad
Im not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore
No not anymore
Yah you say you've got this bad thing
Yah u say you've got it bad
You have broken every heart of every friend you've every had
Some day the time will come when all your friends just go away
(go away, go away)
I wonder why i stick around
Sometimes i wish you would leave
You say you'd love me forever then you spit on me
Your time is gonna come
I say your time is gonna come
I dont wanna be your whipping boy
Your pathetic little loser someone you can ignore
Im not gonna let you overwhelm me anymore
(ahh ahh ahh yeah ahh)
Im not gonna let you hurt me anymore
Im not gonna let you hit me anymore
Im not gonna let you kick me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
I will not let you overwhelm me anymore
It can come from out of nowhere
(whoa whoa)
I dont wanna be your simple saving grace
Just another little victim with a happy face
Someday, someday, someday soon
Somebody's gonna come
I hope they do this to you
Im not gonna let you overwhelm me
And i will not let you hurt me anymore
I will not let you hurt me anymore
I will not let you hit me anymore
I will not let you twist me anymore
No i will not let you turn me inside now
