You
You just preside
Over my life
Open your eyes
Glued
Glued to the knife
That cuts my pride
Keeps me from tryin'
How come you say to call you
But you don't pick up the phone
How come one day I'm nothin'
Next you can't leave me alone
When you least expect it
You will really get it
Haunted to make your decision
Wanting to break the tradition
When you least expect it
You will really get it
Drawn to the same politicians
Pawn in the game of the rich ones
I see the strings
It's real
No dollar could strike
A deal
(Deal)
All of this skin
I'll peel
Then maybe I'll start
To feel
(Feel)
You play me like
A game
Addicted with
High acclaim
(Claim)
My mind you
Might attain
You would be
Quite ashamed
(Ashamed)
All that you wanna do
Is to throttle and use me
I could never refuse
Out of fear you'll reduce me
Piling on the abuse
Only outfit that suits me
I have nothing to lose
Even I sometimes lose me
When you least expect it
You will really get it
Haunted to make your decision
Wanting to break the tradition
When you least expect it
You will really get it
Drawn to the same politicians
Pawn in the game of the rich ones
Ya know I'm so haunted
My freedom is tauntin'
Don't care what you're flauntin'
To be with you's dauntin'
The silence I'm longin'
My bones are defaultin'
And I'm always exhausted
I'd rather be inside my room
All alone
Then to hear you yell yet again
On the phone
I flinch so hard at your blaring voice
Pompous tone
If I hang up will I finally be
On my own
You know and I know
That you've been known to stray (When you least expect it, you will really get it)
To stray
When you least expect it
You will really get it
When you least expect it
You will really get it
