Breathless; force me down on my knees
My body shakes at the sight of you staring at me
This pain's elastic; I adjust to your needs
Oh, but honey, it's apparent that there's no guarentee
Disect my heart; notice it lacks a beat
I'll fall apart if it means that you'll listen to me
False apprehensions; and we're never at ease
Emotional barabarians; enact the violence from within

Dismissed; tell me, isn't it sad?
It's not safe to assume that you would understand
Take your best guess; and throw it away
The prize was never worth the price that you had to pay
Now why so clueless; I meant you no harm
All I ever really wanted were some words to go on
Imperfections; Never let you get far
Still, despite the world you think we're 'luck of the draw'

Was I misled; hold my head underneath
All this pressure from the pleasure that you're wanting from me
Inhale through plastic; what's becoming of me?
I don't recall a promise with the right intentions to keep
Tear me apart; no, really, I'd love to see
The actions taken, step by step, until I agree
Without direction; waking up on your knees
Leaving me out on a limb; Replacing what we've never been

Hear my disgretion; and to you, one glass raised
Willing to bet that if we met then it just won't be the same
Falsely accused; that I'm not who I claim
If you don't like it, up and leave it, cause no way will I change
Maybe it's true; and you'll like what you see
But I warned you this would happen; don't come crying to me
No more exceptions; you just need to believe
This world is full of misery; the air we breathe, hypocrisy
