Choke

Right from the start I shoulda known the route you’d take
A leap from him, to me, to someone else
You left me stranded with no map, no clue or key
Some call it cheap, you call it easy
Well I’ve tried a hundred times to show you that I’ve changed
But you clipped the wings off every cupid sent your way
And every time I’d spill my mind you’d say:
Your heart’s as big as the ocean, darlin'
Your soul’s as deep as the sea
And it’s drowning me, yeah you’re drowning me
You just gotta go with the motions, honey
And give me room to breathe
So I don’t choke
Well I shoulda known it would come to our demise
You stitched your own disguise with threaded lies
I wish I had known that you were digging up my grave
Just so you could fill it slowly
Well I’ve tried a hundred times to show you that I’ve changed
But you clipped the wings off every cupid sent your way
And every time I’d spill my mind you’d say:
Your heart’s as big as the ocean, darlin'
Your soul’s as deep as the sea
And it’s drowning me, yeah you’re drowning me
You just gotta go with the motions, honey
And give me room to breathe
So I don’t choke
(Get away take your hands off me)
(Get away take your hands off me)
(Choke)
(Get away take your hands off me)
(Get away take your hands off me)
(Choke)
The faster you run and the deeper you hide
The harder I try just to keep us alive
The faster you run and the deeper you hide
The harder I try just to keep us alive
Well I know you loved somebody once and they proved you wrong
I know they stole your pride but
(Your heart’s as big as the ocean, darlin')
(Your soul’s as deep as the sea)
(And it’s drowning me, yeah you’re drowning me)
Your heart’s as big as the ocean, darlin'
Your soul’s as deep as the sea
You belong with me, you belong with me
You just gotta go with the motions, honey
And give me room to breathe
So I don’t choke
