Stop the Madness


My heart hurts everyday Wish I knew how to turn back time Want this to stop in so many ways You all should be shame I try being nice as can be I kid around for the most part Guess you would never be able to see And I know that I am no work of art Tearing my mind out To see if I can do anything to fix things I have tried being a kind scout But we are no diamond rings Why can't we be friends? I want to be yours and yours and yours But your heart need to be cleansed And I would rather be tucked away in my drawers Please.....stop I am asking as nice as i possibly can right now And please don't begin to sing Thrift Shop You don't deserve to take that bow Can you please give me some space? I can't take one breathe without having to worry about you on my back And no this is no sort of race I just want to relax
