I tried to make you change but you never will
Why you gotta be the boss let me take the wheel
Man, it shouldn't be exhausting when we just chill
And I don't want to be a pain but it's driving me insane
So I got to say something
And I don't know if I'll ever get away
From the pain I feel but I got to say something
Cause I can't let it burn a hole in me again
Yeah, I plant a seed and I watch it grow
Pray for something better, better than I've ever known
I need the people close around me tell me when I'm wrong
And I can do the same for you that's how we keep us strong
Yeah, talk to me like you really are a friend
I need someone to heal the wounds not one to open them
And walk with me don't leave me dead alone
I'd rather be your partner than some carry on
I don't want to lose my grip but it's just barely on
All the love that I was promised guess that I was wrong
It didn't end up the way we wanted but there's still time for change
But I tried to make you change and you never will
Why you gotta be the boss let me take the wheel
Man, it shouldn't be exhausting when we just chill
And I don't want to be a pain but it's driving me insane
So I got to say something
And I don't know if I'll ever get away from the pain I feel
But I gotta say something
Cause I can't let it burn a hole in me again
I used to do this hoping you were proud of me
But now the tables turned it's for the prophecy
Just trying to live life more honestly, yeah
Even though this life keeps surprising me
I don't got it in me to zip up my dumb mouth
I don't want to slip I fall the walls come down
Hard to get a grip and when I'm telling you it's all sound
Caught up in a tiff and we never got to open up
Has it been hard to say
That all you really want today
For things to go back to how they were
But they're always gonna, always gonna change
But you never will
Why you gotta be the boss let me take the wheel
Man, it shouldn't be exhausting when we just chill
And I don't want to be a pain but it's driving me insane
So I got to say something
And I don't know if I'll ever get away from the pain I feel
But I gotta say something
Cause I can't let it burn a hole in me again
