It's broken
I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo
I'm not a thing you let go
I keep hanging around, got some attachment to you
Way down is to where you get through
I told myself it isn't right but it isn't wrong
Yet I found the more you hot and cold me, the more i need protecting
Can't hear myself singing the same sad song
Oh and it's not hard to figure out why I am never to far from the floor
You can only take me up and down
I've got to move forward
So I've cut the cord
It's broken, I can't let that hope in
I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo
I'm not a thing you let go
You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo
I don't come back when I'm thrown
I keep hanging around
But can't defy gravity
Rebound everytime you touch me
I told myself it isn't right but it isn't wrong
Yet I found the more you high and low me, the more I need stablity
Can't hear myself singing this for too long
Oh, and now you've come to face the fact
But I'm running as fast as I can to the door
Cuz you just wanna swing me up and back
I've got to move forward
So I've cut the cord
It's broken, I can't let that hope in
I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo
I'm not a thing you let go
You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo
I don't come back when I'm thrown
I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo
I'm not a thing you let go
Didn't I adore you? Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied? Didn't I?
Didn't I assure you?
For every climb there is a downward slide that I can't ride
Didnt I adore you? Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied? Didn't I?
Didn't I assure you?
For every climb there is a downward slide
I had to cut the cord
It's broken
I know what you want
I'm not a yo yo
I'm not a thing you let go
You're leaving me no choice then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo
I don't come back when I'm thrown
Oh oh I know what you want
I'm not a yo yo
I'm not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go, not a thing you let go x2
Oh no no I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo yo
Not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go x3
