Everything You're Not

(album: Here We Go Again - 2009)

I've been bruised and I've been broken
Can't believe that I have put up with all this pain
I've been used and I was choking on the promise
I would never fall again

I used to sing to your twisted symphony
The words that had me trapped inside your misery
But now I know
The reason why I couldn't breathe

'Cause all I want is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
And no I don't, I don't care what you say
'Cause all I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Everything you're not
Never gonna see your face again
Never wanna feel this way again

Your darkness was my weakness but it turns out
That it only went so deep, deep
A meaningless diversion that is all that you
Ever meant to me

And I am done with your twisted symphony
The words that had me sound like stolen poetry
I tore the pages and I can finally breathe

'Cause all I want is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
And no I don't, I don't care what you say
'Cause all I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Never gonna see your face again

I want a gentlemen who treats me like a queen
I need respect, I need love
Nothing in between
I will not spell it out for you if you can't see
'Cause you're not worthy, you don't deserve me
And now I'm gone

Everything you're not, not, not
Everything you're not, not, not

'Cause all I want is everything you're not
So go ahead and slam the door
'Cause you can't shut me out
And no I don't, I don't care what you say
'Cause all I really, all I really want
Is everything you're not

Never gonna break my heart again
Never gonna see your face again
Never wanna feel this way again
