Choke

You wanna make me sweat
And you know just how to do it
You'd fake your own death
Just to watch me fucking lose it

I'm talking you down from a crisis again
Off of the edge and into my bed
Buy us some time while I try to mend
All of the things that are wrong in your head

I think it's hopeless

Because you got me by the throat
Breathing in your secondhand smoke
Fighting like hell to stay afloat
But you just wanna watch me choke

You just wanna watch me choke

I wish I had brought this to a halt
When you called me from the psych ward saying it was all my fault
And you say you wanna see me but there's no way I can go
If I set foot in that hospital
I won't be going home

I'm feeling helpless
It's fucking hopeless

Because you got me by the throat
Breathing in your secondhand smoke
Fighting like hell to stay afloat
But you just wanna watch me choke
And I thought that I could fix you
Silly me, now we're both broke
Try to scream but no one hears me
You just wanna watch me choke

I thought that I could fix you
Silly me, silly me
I thought that I could fix you
Silly me

You're not gonna drown
You just wanna pull me down
This is shallow water
You can put your feet on the ground
And stop pulling me down
You're not gonna drown (Silly me, silly me)
You just wanna watch me drown (You just wanna pull me down)
I won't let you pull me down (Silly me, silly me)
I couldn't fix you (You're not gonna drown)
But I know how to fix me (Silly me, silly me)
Now that you're gone (You just wanna pull me down)
I can finally breathe
