Your words turn to fisticuffs 
and I sigh, I've had enough 
but I can't get it through to you and still I do love all those things that you do 

I'm still standing after all of this 
I'm still up right after your kiss 
so you can't say you knock me down to my knees and took my breath away 

getting through to you is not an easy thing to do 

but do you truly love me 
for you see I'm feeling very wary 
so don't do those things to me and I will not do those things unto you 

mis justices have been done just for fun

baby give me some love 
before I go home 
because I'm going home alone so give me some loving before I go
 stop blaming the mistletoe
 your venomous I know
 so we can stop pretending
 that you're winning
 cuz I know you're not 

and getting through to you is not an easy thing to do

 I do enjoy your whips and chains
as long as it brings me pain 
so I can start to feel the way I used to feel when I still felt I was real

no reasons left to my rhymes 
no hourglass could fit or conform to our time
never mind those things I said 
your lies keep me in another's head 

and getting through to you is not an easy thing to do 

don't tread on my old soul 
just shut your mouth and Know Your Role 
time is running out I kicking shout but I am losing the bout

baby give me some love 
before I go home 
because I'm going home alone so give me some loving before I go
 stop blaming the mistletoe
 your venomous I know
 so we can stop pretending
 that you're winning
 cuz I know you're not 

and getting through to you is not an easy thing to do
