lyrics

bolt me to the floor, make me run away
there's nowhere to go, but here i'll suffocate
i wanted to be sure, but i just hesitate
if there was a cure, i'd let it go to waste

don't you wanna be helpless and alone
without anything to call your own?
it's easier than taking control

chain me to the door, say i can escape
tell me all the words i'm allowed to say
i wanted to be sure it's not all a mistake
if there was a cure, i wouldn't like the taste
anyway

don't you wanna be helpless and alone
without anything to call your own?
it's easier than taking control
