There are just too many times
that people have tried to look inside of me
Wondering what I think of you
And I protect you out of courtesy
To many times that I've held on
when I needed to push away
Afraid to say what was on my mind
Afraid to say what I need to say
Too many things that you've said about me
when I'm not around
You think having the upperhand
means you gotta keep putting me down
But I've had too many stand offs with you
Its about as much as I can stand
So I'm waiting until the upperhand is mine
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, watch you drop
Making your heart stop
Just before you hit the floor
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, missed a shot
Making your heart stop
You think you've won, and then it's all gone
So many people like me
put so much trust in all your lies
So concerned on what you think
to just say what we feel inside
So many people like me
walk on eggshells all day long
All I know is that all I want is to feel
like I'm not stepped on
There are so many things you say
that make me feel you've crossed the line
What goes up will surely fall
And I'm counting down the time
'Cause I've had so many stand offs with you
It's about as much as I can stand
So I'm waiting until the upperhand is mine
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, watch you drop
Making your heart stop
Just before you hit the floor
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, missed a shot
Making your heart stop
You think you've won, and then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
Now it's all gone
I know I'll never trust a single thing you say
You knew your lies would divide us,
but you lied anyway
And all the lies have got you floating up above us all
But what goes up has got to fall
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, watch you drop
Making your heart stop
Just before you hit the floor
One minute you're on top
Next, you're not, missed a shot
Making your heart stop
You think you've won, and then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
And then it's all gone
Now it's all gone
