Текст песни PUNCHING BAG - Mercury & the Architects

Monsters under my skin
Treat me better than
Problems up in my head
Have more answers than
You had your second chance
And that was your last strike
Till I hit back
I'm no punching bag

I can only let you get so close
If you don't stay composed
I can only give you so much rope
Until you hang us both
Like you always do
You remember that we failed to grow
But it was only you
The whole time
You wrote the rules
And I fell in line
You hid the roots
I cut through to climb
I was the glue we left out to dry
Let it slide till you go too far
Compromised
Just to fall apart
I know you thought
You could take and
Take and take
But I don't think you could take no more
Last straw I don't think I could take no more

Monsters under my skin
Treat me better than
Problems up in my head
Have more answers than
You had your second chance
And that was your last strike
Till I hit back
I'm no punching bag

You must think I'm a push over
Still here like a good soldier
I don't wanna lose who I am
Split in two different halves
Fighting your demons
But I would for ya
Gave you everything I had
And you smashed it
Towers in the sky
Till you burned us down to ashes
Making love with the lows
I know you know
How to take all the heights for granted
Compromised
For the very last time
Told not once but twice
For the very last time
Nothing left inside
For me to give at all
It is what it is
I can't take no more

Monsters under my skin
Treat me better than
Problems up in my head
Have more answers than
You had your second chance
And that was your last strike
Till I hit back
I'm no punching bag
