I'm walking on eggshells around you 
Because of the darkness that surrounds you 
And I'm scared you could take it too far 
And tip the edge of the bar 
A scale to far to bear
And I'd have to watch the fabric tear 
On the dream I had of you and I 
I don't want you to die 
But I guess it's not in my hands 
Not since you said I don't own those lands 
Not since you said you don't have the time 
To give me what's rightfully mine
So I took the ring and slipped it back on my finger 
I left the room and the singer
Seemed to announce my freedom
I didn't realise I could leave him 
Alone and together at the same time 
And I guess my only crime 
Was seeing the truth a little too clear 
And that his mechanics run on fear 
And servitude
But I would never want that in a dude
To be leashed by a ball and chain 
I want to dance in the rain 
And kiss by the light of the moon 
Move like we're the only ones in the room 
Be one beyond union 
Never wonder "what are you doing?"
But instead pause to surrender 
To wake and remember 
Exactly what we are
Take him driving in my car
But he took hot sauce and smashed the windows 
He'd hurt me and they're worried but I won't let him in though 
And he bays and he brews 
And it's always bad news 
On the radio when I tune in 
And I don't want to ruin him 
I want to be free and I wish him the same 
I won't take his second name 
Or marry what I thought I loved
But was that what you were thinking of 
When you looked at me 
Or do I know what it is you see 
As you bare your teeth 
Then I put my arms around you on the street 
And you're soft as a daffodil 
Flower sitting on the windowsill 
And my heart skips out of my chest 
And I wonder why it loves you best 
And fast forward all these years 
There's been a lot of shouting and tears 
But as the storm front clears 
I think he finally hears 
My song as I sing it 
I'm the leader and and I bring it
