Cope - Lyrics - Tallman

hold me underneath the water rinse me till I'm clean stretch my skin and scratch the surface I promise I won't bleed I never wanted to be born into this every time I hear your voice it makes me sick beaten by an open hand, I raise a fist I got to find a way to cope with all of this shut the door and lock me out I'll throw away your key on my own out in the cold there's no one left but me I never wanted to be born into this every time I hear your voice it makes me sick beaten by an open hand, I raise a fist I got to find a way to cope with all of this I try not to cry this is not just temporary fear and denial remain I'm now just twice as aware of the abuse and the pain this is not what I want to be but you expected more from me this is not what I want to be I tried not to cry I never wanted to be born into this every time I hear your voice it makes me sick beaten by an open hand, I raise a fist I got to find a way to cope with all of this
