I stepped into a room of clocks that all told different times
I stepped into a mirrored world that mirrored all our crimes
tu keep picking at the scab and I'll keep selling the plaster
tu keep telling me that I'm bad
But I keep on getting better faster
tu hold me down and tu hold me up
tu can't communicate
tu brought me up just to bring me down
I've nothing left to say
I've lost, I've lost my innocence
I've found my self-belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I've found instant relief
tu hold me down, tu hold me up
Oh Daddy, are we out of luck?
tu brought me up to bring me down
tu shut me in, tu shut me up
I'm gone, I'm gone to heaven
I'm gone, I'm gone to hell
If nobody could see I'd hold my hand out to be held
tu hold me down and tu hold me up
I can't communicate
tu brought me up just to bring me down
I've nothing left to say
I've lost, I've lost my innocence
I've found my self-belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I've found instant relief
tu hold me down, tu hold me up
Oh Daddy, are we out of luck?
tu brought me up, tu bring me down
tu shut me in, tu shut me up
tu keep picking at the scab
So I'll keep on selling the plaster
And you, tu think I'm bad
So I'll keep on getting better faster
I've lost, I've lost my innocence
I've found my self-belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I've found instant relief
tu hold me down, tu hold me up
Oh Daddy, are we out of luck?
tu brought me up to bring me down
tu shut me in, tu shut me up
I've lost, I've lost my confidence
I found my self belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I sailed a thousand seas
tu tell me what to say and wear
tu say that it's because tu care
But I prefer to be alone
Than live a life that's not my own
I stepped into a mirrored world that mirrored all our crimes
tu keep picking at the scab and I'll keep selling the plaster
tu keep telling me that I'm bad
But I keep on getting better faster
tu hold me down and tu hold me up
tu can't communicate
tu brought me up just to bring me down
I've nothing left to say
I've lost, I've lost my innocence
I've found my self-belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I've found instant relief
tu hold me down, tu hold me up
Oh Daddy, are we out of luck?
tu brought me up to bring me down
tu shut me in, tu shut me up
I'm gone, I'm gone to heaven
I'm gone, I'm gone to hell
If nobody could see I'd hold my hand out to be held
tu hold me down and tu hold me up
I can't communicate
tu brought me up just to bring me down
I've nothing left to say
I've lost, I've lost my innocence
I've found my self-belief
And in a cup of loneliness
I've found instant relief
tu hold me down, tu hold me up
Oh Daddy, are we out of luck?
tu brought me up, tu bring me down
tu shut me in, tu shut me up
