Tied Up Tied Down

My mouth is wired shut
There’s cannons in my ears
Pressure on my chest
I’m choking on your mirrored face
Been tied up before
And it’s held me back for years
Don’t beat it down on me
Don’t beat it down on me
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
I feel the (suffocation)
Pulling and pulling me towards you
Away from (suffocation)
The things I really must do
Your heart is seeping into me
Lessening the glee
I’m not supposed to be
I’m not supposed to be
Your heart is seeping into me
Lessening the glee
I’m not supposed to be
I’m not supposed to be unfree
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
Ooh, tied up I’m tied down
Ooh, tied up I’m tied down
Now how am I supposed to reach back
And look upon my tracks
Yeah, I look upon my tracks
I keep making the same mistakes
Giving all I have
And leaving nothing to take
Nothing to take
Maybe I’ve mastered the art of being left behind
Careful to leave any trace of being unkind
I’m no deviant however impure
There’s just not much I’m willing to endure
Tied
Tied
Tied
Tied
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
Oh, tied up I’m tied down
Ooh, tied up I’m tied down
Ooh, tied up I’m tied down
