Paint the sky
Paint it colors of your fucking lies
Tell your friends I'm going out tonight
I feel like I'm itching for a fight
Because you did me wrong
Why do you never notice me?
I'm afraid that I'm feeling
Everything I ever thought I knew
Was all lies
A fucking lie
'Cause you try to take her over
But she don't leave when under
I build up
Sucker punching myself out
And as my pulse races faster and faster
I catch myself shout out loud
Take your best shot
I won't quit
I swear it
When will I get it?
When will I understand?
That nothing matters
It's all inside my head
So I'm going to change my ways
Searching for better things
'Cause you try to take her over
But she don't leave when under
I build up
Sucker punching myself out
And as my pulse races faster and faster
I catch myself shout out loud
Take your best shot
I won't quit
I swear it
I won't fit into all of your plans
I won't fall into any of your traps
I won't go out of my way to make you happy
'Cause I get nothing
Oh, I get nothing for my pain
Because I take her over
But she don't leave when under
I build up
Sucker punching myself out
