Ignorant

Where did my inspiration go
Burnt out with zero self control
The leash pulls me further behind

I'm starving for a little taste
Stuck to the mattress, suffocate
It's not my fault, I won't deny
That I blame myself most every time

I'm rotting from the inside out
Inside out

I'm laughing but I feel so nervous
I pace the floor until it hurts
I am tongue tied, in a chokehold
Head in the clouds, knife to my throat

I'm like a dog inside a cage
I'm growling cause I cannot beg
I am tongue tied, in a chokehold
I am tainted, I am at war

I'm rotting inside out
He's still holding me down

I sang with strings tied to my hands
I was too young to understand
But these days I'm just feeling like a clown
Emmy, when did you get so down

Behind my eyes there is a crime scene
The man he took everything from me
I am a creature made of fear
I learned to kill, I learned to disappear

I'm laughing but I feel so nervous
I pace the floor until it hurts
I am tongue tied, in a chokehold
Head in the clouds, knife to my throat

I'm like a dog inside a cage
I'm growling cause I cannot beg
I am tongue tied, in a chokehold
I am tainted, I am at war

I am tongue tied, in a chokehold
I am at war
