Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This little voice is a moaner
Weighs on my head like a boulder
And it's wearin' down on my shoulders, ay
I'm up to here with emotions
I'm growin' tired and older
I've tried to keep my composure but
[Verse 2]
It has that power over me
Crawlin' up my throat and makes it hard to breathe, oh
It has that power over me
Scared it's here to stay and it's never gonna leave
[Verse 3]
That power (Power, power)
Makes it hard to breathe
That power (Power, power)
It's never gonna leave
[Verse 4]
This little voice is a liar
And I'm tangled up in its wires
It's gettin' tighter and tighter, yeah
I'm in the line of the fire
Ain't got no armor to fight it
I've tried my best, but I'm tired, yeah
[Verse 5]
It has that power over me
Crawlin' up my throat and makes it hard to breathe, oh
It has that power over me
Scared it's here to stay and it's never gonna leave
[Verse 6]
That power (Power, power)
Makes it hard to breathe
That power (Power, power)
It's never gonna leave
[Verse 7]
And I hate it
Oh, I hate it
Down a lane that's losin' track
But I'm patient
Oh, oh, I'm patient
Till it all comes runnin' back
[Verse 8]
It has that power over me
[Verse 9]
That power
Crawling up my throat and makes it hard to breathe
It has that power over me
Scared it's here to stay and it's never gonna leave
[Verse 10]
Power (Power, power)
Makes it hard to breathe
That power (Power, power)
Never gonna leave
