You don't have to crush me
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to be the way you are
I know that it's hard
Things are never what they seem
As life goes on things might change
I hope I change my ways
You say that I'm selfish, it's me I aim to please
I have no heart and I do not care
There's no one else just me
You don't have to crush me
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to be the way you are
You've judged and tried me ten times over
And you told me that I'm cheap
You've said that I should get a life
Get a life, just leave
You don't have to crush me
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to crush me
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to crush
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to
You don't have to put me down
I know that there's no point in fighting
Fighting with you
I don't want to let you bring me down again
I'd like to see you happy but it seems
You're bent on crushing me
Crushing me
Crushing me
It's the day after you burnt me and
The smoke still hasn't cleared
I don't know what to say
You brought a man to tears
You don't have to crush me
You don't have to put me down
You don't have to crush me [Repeat: x7]
Crush me [Repeat: x3]
