Lyrics:
I don’t belong to you
So don’t tell me what to do
Sick of the feeling I’m lying here bleeding while you slither over what’s mine
I am the power wake up say it louder it’s time

I don’t wanna live my life
Feeding off a beautiful lie
baby this is your war
but its killing the both of us

I don’t belong to you
No one can change the truth
don’t be afraid of the monster you’ve made when what goes around does come around
Your words have no meaning
is that why you’re screaming so loud

I don’t wanna live my life
Feeding off a beautiful lie
baby this is your war
but its killing the both of us

Sick sick sick your mind
Take the bait refuse to wake
and all this time I’ve wasted waiting on you
When the only way out was ever through
Sick of all your lies, time to realize
You got lost in the game and you lost your mind
So sick of everything I’m drowning underneath
And it’s all up to you if you want to chose to waste your life
But you can’t have mine

I don’t belong to you

I don’t want to live my life
Feeding off a beautiful lie
Maybe I’m not the one
Maybe this will never be enough
I don’t wanna live my life
Choking on a beautiful lie
Baby this is your war,
But it’s killing the both of us
