I Won't Let You Own Me

Songtext

[Intro] You know the name, you know the feeling No apologies tonight [Verse 1] I came in with the door still swinging Cold look, whole room went quiet They talk big when the crew starts ringing Face to face, every claim gets private I keep receipts in a shoebox by the bed Dates and names, every promise they broke You want war, then say it with your chest Don't hide behind a screen and a joke [Chorus] I hate you, I hate what you made me I hate every lie you sold You can keep that hand you're waving I don't need your hand to hold I hate you, but I won't let you own me That chapter's burned and closed You can shout from the back if you know me I'm the one who walked out whole [Verse 2] You mistook my patience for permission Now the bill comes due in full I was there when the plan went missing You were gone when the walls got pulled New coat, same stain underneath it New friends, same tricks in the bag I don't need revenge to complete it Watching you lose me is punishment enough [Bridge] Say my name, then swallow the sound I found my feet when you pushed me down No more calls, no more second round I left your key on the kitchen counter [Chorus] I hate you, I hate what you made me I hate every lie you sold You can keep that hand you're waving I don't need your hand to hold I hate you, but I won't let you own me That chapter's burned and closed You can shout from the back if you know me I'm the one who walked out whole [Outro] No apology No return address I'm done
