Suffocate

(album: Ready For Love - 2009)

Tie
Safe that's all I need
Away from you
So why do you tie me in a knot I can't undo
You're holding me so tight
As if I'm leaving you tonight
Just try to let you know
That it's all got too much for me

'Cause I can't, can't get where I want to
When you got me stuck in a corner
And you can't see, see what you're doing to me
Oh baby I need a room to breathe
I can't feel what I outta
When you hold me under the water
No I can't breathe
Why can't you see
That you're suffocating me
Suffocating me

What do you want from me
How can I give you more when you strangle my emotion
Insecurity's shutting every door that is open
I can feel it when you hold me
That you're trying to control me
I try to walk away but I can't move
When your nails are in my feet

'Cause I can't, can't get where I want to
When you got me stuck in a corner
And you can't see, see what you're doing to me
Baby I need a room to breathe
I can't feel what I outta
When you hold me under the water
No I can't breathe
Why can't you see
That you're suffocating me
Suffocating me

You wanna hold me down
Try and put me in sad, afraid
You want me all stuck down here forever, ever
You try to bring me down
And tell me that I'm to blame
It's all too much to take
It's never gonna be the same

'Cause I can't, can't get where I want to
When you got me stuck in a corner
And you can't see, see what you're doing to me
Baby I need a room to breathe
I can't feel what I outta
When you hold me under the water
No I can't breathe
Why can't you see
That you're suffocating me
Suffocating me
