There are just
too many
times that people have tried to look inside of me,
wonderin' what I think of you
and I protect you out of courtesy.
Too many
times that I've held on when I need to push away.
Afraid to say
what was on my mind.
Afraid to say
what I need to say.
Too many
things things you said about me when I'm not around.
You think having the upper hand means
you gotta keep putting me down.
But I've had too many
stand offs with you,
it's about as much as i can stand
so I'm waiting till the upper hand is mine.

One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not once you drop.)
Making your heart stop.
(Just before you hit the floor.)
One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not, missed your shot.)
Making your heart stop.
You think you've won,
and then it's all
gone.

So many
people like me put so much trust in all your lies.
So concerned with what you think
to just say what we feel inside.
So many
people like me walk on eggshells all day long.
All I know
is that all I want
is to feel like i'm not stepped on.
There are so many
things you say that make me feel you crossed the line
What goes up
will surely fall
and I'm counting down like time.
Cuz I've had so many
stand offs with you,
it's about as much as i can stand
so I'm waiting till the upper hand is mine.

One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not once you drop.)
Making your heart stop.
(Just before you hit the floor.)
One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not, missed your shot.)
Making your heart stop.
You think you've won,
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
now its all gone

I know I'll never trust a single thing you say.
You realize you'd divide us but you lied anyway.
And all the lies have got you floating up above us all
but what goes up has got to fall.

One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not once you drop.)
Making your heart stop.
(Just before you hit the floor.)
One minute you're on top.
(I guess you're not, missed your shot.)
Making your heart stop.
You think you've won,
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
and then it's all
gone.
now its all gone
