stronger than ever

what you gave me

i know you gave me

you remind me all the time

and how you hurt me and you don't see it

again

i am the child

and though you tell me that you love me

i can't feel it and i'm afraid to let you down

it's all or nothing

i fear that something's wrong

i'm tired of walking on eggshells

so terrified to fail

and in order to please you i've abandoned myself

and though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away

i'm stronger than ever

you made me this way

how i wish you

you suffered less too

it tears us both apart

and it's not pretty

the way you criticize me

and how it breaks my heart

and though you tell me that you love me

i can't feel it and i'm afraid to let you down

it's all or nothing

i fear that something's wrong

i'm tired of walking on eggshells

so terrified to fail

and in order to please you i've abandoned myself

and though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away

i'm stronger than ever

you made me this way

how i wish you knew

how much i need you

i feel like running but i can't abandon you

you avoid my gaze

withdraw from me these days

you punish me for trying to be all that you wanted

what more can i do?

i'm tired of walking on eggshells

so terrified to fail

and in order to please you i've abandoned myself

and though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away

i'm stronger than ever

you made me this way

i'm tired of walking on eggshells

so terrified to fail

and in order to please you i've abandoned myself

and though it used to hurt me when you pushed me away

i'm stronger than ever

you made me this way
