I'll return for no one else but you
When my colors run you know that I'll hold true
When I say that I'm out numbered
Losing all the ground that I have covered
Don't you think I can handle myself?
I've been fighting off these men for quite some time
They question me for things they will not find
Cause remember how I used to say
"I'll be thankful just to sleep today"
And my words they still hold true
They beat their evil eyes at me
I scream, "I won't tell anything"
But their heavy arms just won't give in
As they flaunt themselves in victory
While I spite my haunting history
Who's to say I've lost this fight?
Silly boys just talk and talk about me
As if seventeen hadn't sold you the story
I let them waste all their music on me
With the sad excuse a pretty girl can make you crazy
I won't act like I haven't heard the threat
Until growing up seems like the safest bet
No matter how many times I try to leave
I let unstable lives take the best of me
They beat their evil eyes at me
I scream, "I won't tell anything"
But their heavy arms just won't give in
As they flaunt themselves in victory
While I spite my haunting history
Who's to say I've lost this fight?
I won't come through till I'm ready
For two whole years I've left the living game
But you're still here, that's a shame
Cause these hills that hide the city
Hide the jokes and raise the pretty
I'm not gonna risk staying in bed
On another Sunday wishing I had never did
Leave the place I feel at rest
