Letting you go

Do you think it's okay?
When you push me down the drain?
Do you think I'm going insane?

Does it feel good?
When you push me around?
When you put me down?

Well I'm telling you this.
I say it's time to quit.
Because I think all this bullying is shit.

I don't have time for this.
You think I'm kidding.
With all this hard-hitting.

Information that I'm dishing out.
Don't make me shout.
Makes me feel like you're throwing my feelings out.

Out the door
While you take me to the floor.
Do you know what you're here for?

You're here because I love you, but why?
You're here because I've always been shy.
You're here cause I won't show you the door.

But not anymore.
Because you're not worth dyeing for.
