guess what

you think you're so damn smart

you know everything there is to know

about me

and what i'm doing

i guess i really let you down

i guess i wasn't trying hard enough

and i should just shut up

and write the music

you're right

i never should've fallen in love

cause i'm supposed to be a machine

well guess what?

i'm the one who's still on stage

i'm the one who wasn't afraid

so maybe i should take your advice

and maybe you should get out the way

and i'm coming through

yeah

and nothing's gonna stop me now

you say you're only trying to help

that you don't want to seem to get down

but you don't know the work i put in to get out

i'm sick of this town

i know just what i want

nothing's ever stopped me before

so what gives you the right to change me

i'm better off just being a whore

you're right

i never should've fallen in love

cause i'm supposed to be a machine

guess what?

i'm planning out my next move

i know what to do

and everything's gonna start coming up roses

with or without a woman like you

and i'm coming through

yeah

and nothing's gonna stop me now
