Straitjacket Feeling

Back me down from backing upHold your breath now it's stacking upEtched with marks, but I can dealAnd you're the problem and you can't feelTry this on, straitjacket feelingso maybe I won't be aloneTake back now, my life you're stealing

Yesterday was hellBut today I'm fine without youRun away this time without youAnd all I ever thought you'd beThat face is tearing holes in me again

Trust you is just one defenseoff a list of others, you don't make senseBeg me time and time againto take you back now, but you can't winTake back now, my life you're stealing

Yesterday was hellBut today I'm fine without youRun away this time without youAnd all I ever thought you'd beThat face is tearing holes in mebut today I'm fine without youRun away this time without youAnd all the things you put me throughI'm holding on by letting go of you

And when that memory slips awayThere'll be a better view from hereAnd only lonesome you remainsand just the thought of you I fearit falls away
