Why do you build me up
Only to tear me down
Was I not good enough
To wear your golden crown
High, too high, atop your tower of stone
High, too high, so now I feel alone
Why do you hate me
Why can't you let me go
I'm chasing every dream
Where you cannot follow
Why do your lips sing praise
While your throat screams neglect
Am I your goddess or
Am I degenerate
Drowning, I'm drowning in your ocean eyes
Drowning, I'm drowning, trapped beneath your lies
Hate me
Why can't you let me go
I'm chasing every dream
Where you cannot follow
Why won't you leave me
Where I can wield sorrow
I want to face the unknown
To face it on my own
Drowning, I'm drowning
Drowning, I'm drowning
Drowning, I'm drowning
Hate me
Why can't you let me go
I'm chasing every dream
Where you cannot follow
Why won't you leave me
Where I can wield sorrow
I want to face the unknown
To face it on my own
