Rachel Baiman - Take a Stand Lyrics

Cold bare feet on a wood floor led
To a grown man lying in a child's bed
Nightfall brought a subtle dread
All the things I did, to get ahead
There's a grown man lying in my little bed

You were a teacher in my eager eyes
What's love if not my dreams, realized
Nothing to gain without compromise
I said I love you well I think you knew that I lied
But what's love if not your dream realized?

You wanted to hold me
I was a child, I was lonely
Were you looking to feel like more of a man?
Well I grew up despite you, now I'm angry just like you
But it's too late,
To take a stand

Your laughter was plenty, your music was fine
I had only one thing to give for your time
So give it I did, and you never asked why
The days were easy, but at night I'd cry
I had only one thing to give for your time

You wanted to hold me
I was a child, I was lonely
Were you looking to feel like more of a man?
Well I grew up despite you, now I'm angry just like you
But it's too late,
To take a stand
Yea it's too late,
To take a stand

Cold bare feet on a wood floor led to a grown man lying in a child's bed
