Lyrics

[Chorus]
This has gotta stop, enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer
It's gone far enough
You wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door
[Verse 1]
I knew that something was going on wrong
When you started laying down the law
I can't move my hands, I break out in sweat
I wanna cry, can't take it anymore
[Chorus]
This has gotta stop, enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer
It's gone far enough
You wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door
[Verse 2]
Been around long, long time
Seen it all, and I'm used to being free
I know who I am, try to do what's right
So lock me up and throw away the key
[Chorus]
This has gotta stop, enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer
It's gone far enough
You wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door
[Bridge]
Thinking of my kids, what's left for them
And then what's coming down the road
The light in the tunnel could be the southbound train
Lord, please help them with their load
[Chorus]
This has gotta stop, enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer
It's gone far enough
You wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door
[Chorus]
This has gotta stop, enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer
It's gone far enough
You wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door
[Outro]
This door
This door
This door
Break down this door
[Outro]
This door
This door
This door
Break down this door
