when in a box full of nails- become a hammer
By swing_the_hammer
I'm going to break
Every promise I made you
I'm going to tear down
The walls of this padded room
I'll tear myself to pieces
To get back at you
I'll claw my way
out of this tomb
I'm going to hide my heart away-
In a box full of nails
To keep it out of your hands...
You said you were salt
And I should put some in this wound
But too much ruins a good thing, baby-
Besides- I need a little sugar now
I need to be sweet and
You're just rubbing it in
And no, she doesn't look like me
You just wish she did
And no, I don't still love you
You just wish I did
I won't let you hurt me again
I hate you
I'll sacrifice myself
So you'll see the truth in your lies
I'll tear myself to pieces
To get back at you
Don't you remember the promises I made you?
I'm going to break them...
-i'm going to break-
