Lyrics

I wasn't even thinking 'bout it
Til you brought it up
Maybe giving up for a little while
Take some time
If that's what you want to do
But you can't walk away
No matter what we're going through
If you're getting scared, be prepared
It's gets scarier, when you really care
And it's so deep we can't acknowledge it
But everybody's feeling it
So don't you let them bring you down
Don't you know I'll be around yeah
If you wanna, if you gotta tell someone
So don't you let them make you crack
I'm a monkey on your back and
You're a snake that's crawling through my grass
I could laugh when you say that you'll help me out
I'm fucked and there's no doubt about it
I'm trapped and there's no way out of it
But fuck the self-pity and feeling real shitty
Once again, let me say, I'm fucking strong even when I'm wrong
I'm tough even when they throw a bluff
I'll fucking lie, til I want to cry
Til the day I die, yeah
Don't you let them bring you down
Don't you know I'll be around yeah
If you wanna, if you gotta tell someone
So don't you let them make you crack
I'm a monkey on your back and
You're a snake that's crawling through my grass
Maybe you're right we should take a break
And just fake
Like we want it that way
But that's bullshit all the way
We like telling lies to each other
To our friends, to my mother, oh brother
This is getting real close to the fucking bone
I like it too much just to leave it alone
But I should, I wish I could
If I don't I'm gonna get burned
I should have learned
Don't you let them bring you down
Don't you know I'll be around yeah
If you wanna, if you gotta tell someone
So don't you let them make you crack
I'm a monkey on your back and
You're a snake that's travelling through my grass
Trapped in a cage of lies and fear
Don't even speak, I'm reading you loud and clear
Don't ever say those three little words
Makes it hard when you gotta fade
Look at it like a game we played
Not a love affair
Just fucking and sucking, when I'm done I keep trucking
But I'm lying to myself just to ease the pain
