There were just too many times people have tried to look inside of me

Wondering what I think of you and I protect you out of courtesy

Too many times that I've held on when I needed to push away

Afraid to say what was on my mind

Afraid to say what I need to say

Too many things that you say about me when Im 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, its about as much as I can stand

So Ill wait until the upper hand is mine



And then you're a rockstar

The next your not, watch it drop

Making your heart stop

Just before you hit the floor

And then you're a rockstar

The next your not, missed your shot

Making your heart stop

You think you've won

And then it's all gone



So many people like me that put so much trust in all your lies

So concerned of 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've cross the line

What goes up will surely fall, and i'm counting down the time

Cause i've had so many stand-offs with you, its about as much as I can stand

So i'm waiting until the upper hand is mine



And then you're a rockstar

The next your not, watch it drop

Making your heart stop

Just before you hit the floor

And then you're a rockstar

The next your not, missed your shot

Making your heart stop

You think you've won

And then it's all gone

And then its all gone

And then its all gone

And then its all gone

Now its all gone



I know i'll never trust a single thing you say
