Come on in, take a seat
Tell me how you feel this weak
Are you cursed? Are you blessed?
Are you still inside the mess?
All those feelings wrapped around you
Hold you down so you can't break through
It's a trap, so don't ask. It's a shadow on
Your back. It don't burn, it don't bleed
Still it cuts you at the knee
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know you
Gotta break through
Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip Down)
'Cause now I own you
Take a breath, hold it in
Now look up, let's begin
Lesson learned, take a turn
Now you come around again
All those feelings wrapped around you
Hold you down so you can't break through
Time is up, take your shot
'Cause your story's all you got
Don't back down, don't say no
Just exhale and let go
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know
You've gotta break through
Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip down)
'Cause now I own you
(You can't kill me with kindness, no I don't buy it)
Strip down, show your flesh and bone
'Cause now I own you
Hey, c'est la vie
Remember me? I made you, dressed
And trained you
Hey, it's bitter sweet
You can't kill me with kindness
I don't buy it
Strip down, show me flesh and bone
(Strip Down)
'Cause now I own you
Now I own you
Now I own you
Now I own you
You know I own you
