I could see it out my window
That stupid sunshine and those trees
A voice in my head
It cuts me down in
I try to shut it up but I can't let it go, oh
It sounds a lot like you do
Always saying shit I know is not true
It sucks me in
It spits me out
I try to shut it up cause I must let it go
Hey man don't you know you're choking the cherry
Hey man don't you know me better than that
Sucking me in, spitting me out
One day I may just leave you far behind me
~ CHERRY ~
I can hear it in the hallway
It's out there laughing with its friends
~ CHERRY ~
It's a voice in my head
~ CHERRY ~
It cuts me down in
~ CHERRY ~
I try to shut it up but I must let it go, oh
It looks a lot like you do
~ CHERRY ~
It looks like a, I don't want to say it,
~ CHERRY ~
It sucks me in
~ CHERRY ~
It spits me out
~ CHERRY ~
I try to shut it up cause I must let it go
Hey man don't you know you're choking the cherry
Hey man don't you know me better then that
Sucking me in, spitting me out
One day I may just leave you far behind me
Hey man don't you know your choking the cherry
I'm frustrated, why don't you get off my back
Hey man don't you know your choking the cherry
Hey man you know I deserve better then that
~ (talking by poe)
One day I may just leave you far behind me
Hey man don't you know your choking the cherry
Hey man don't you know me better then that
Hey man don't you know your choking the cherry
Hey man don't you know me better then that
Hey man
