Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can barely hear myself
I put me on the shelf
They don't wanna play pretend
I will never see the end
[Chorus]
No longer will I exist in spite of you
No longer will I exist in spite of you
Anarchy's more interesting when you write it on the wall
Back what you say, stand tall
[Verse 2]
I cannot be the archetype that you have created in your head
We cannot throw away our wants because they do not align
I cannot change every aspect of myself to benefit you
If you're waiting for me to be different, you'll be waiting a long time
[Refrain]
I can't tell you who to be
I can't even change me
I won't ever tell you no
Where or when to go
[Bridge]
So loosen your grip around my neck
Your control makes me sick
So loosen your grip around my neck
Your control makes me sick
[Chorus]
No longer can I exist in spite of you
No longer will I exist in spite of you
Anarchy's more interesting when you write it on the wall
Back what you say, stand tall
[Bridge]
Did that sound better in your head?
And do you wish me dead?
And did that sound better in your head?
And do you wish me dead?
[Bridge]
If you had me, I would hate you
If you had me, I would hate you
If you had me, I would hate you
If you had me, I would hate you
[Outro]
I can't tell you who to be
I can't even change me
I won't ever tell you no
Where or when to go
