be 'Cause everything that you thought I
Feeling so faithless, lost under the would be

Don't know what you're expecting of
me Every step that I take is another mistake
Put under the pressure of walking in to you

Every step that I take is another mistake And every second I waste is more than I
to you can take
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in
the undertow) And I know
I may end up failing too
I've become so numb But I know
I can't feel you there You were just like me with someone
Become so tired disappointed in you
So much more aware
I'm becoming this I've become so numb
All I want to do I can't feel you there
Is be more like me (I'm tired of being what you want me to
And be less like you be)

me (I'm tired of being what you want me to
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose be)
