Set It Off - I'd Rather Drown Lyrics
Thanks for treating me like every boy you meetSo please come in and take a seatHere's the part when I learn, and you will teachOn how to treat people like a piece of meatI want a genuine, not a replicaLethal medicine, a pin to the corneaA sight for sore eyesWhile other guys consume the lie, I'll run and hideNo doors exist on my fortressThe only entrance is the one I bearYou're nothing more than a temptressI fell victim to a heartless snareBurn the ***** downI never will cross that bridge againI cannot trust you easilyOr think that I'm the only oneI never let people in, and I have you to remind me whySo baby burn the ***** downI never will cross that bridge againI'd rather drownI'm the master of constructionBecause I'm building walls like it's my occupationIf you portray a liar, I'll shut you out without hesitationIt's an art form of consummate skillOf how she plays them like the pawnMaking boys drool at her willLike Pavlov to the dogsNo doors exist on my fortressThe only entrance is the one I bearYou're nothing more than a temptressI fell victim to a heartless snareBurn the ***** downI never will cross that bridge againI cannot trust you easilyOr think that I'm the only oneI never let people in, and I have you to remind me whySo baby burn the ***** downI never will cross that bridge againI'd rather, I'd rather, I'd ratherDrown me, slit my throat so lightlyPick me up and drop me right into my graveAnd now I wonder, sit alone and ponderShould I even bother, when I see your face?The itch I couldn't scratchBut I'd come crawling back but nowI'd much rather, rather, rather, rather, ratherI'd rather burn the ***** downI never will cross that bridge againI cannot trust you easilyOr think that I'm the only oneI never let people in, and I have you to remind me whySo baby burn the ***** down, I never will cross that bridge againGo ahead and burn the bridge right down, it's what you wantedBurn the bridge right downI'm not the only one, not the only oneSo baby burn the ***** down, I never will cross that bridge againI'd rather drown
