Take Me Back
Koma &Bones Lyrics

Take me or leave me alone
I am giving you the option to either accept me as I am or let me be by myself.

I'm wasting half my time putting you on that petty velvet throne
I am spending too much of my time trying to please you and fulfill your unrealistic expectations.

You're wasting half your time screaming at me down the telephone
You are spending too much time yelling and being angry with me over the phone, instead of actually listening to what I have to say.

Unforgiving eyes shooting daggers round the room
Your eyes are filled with anger and disapproval, casting hurtful glares all around the room.

Acting though the entire world has got it in for you
You are behaving as if everyone is against you, when in reality, that is not the case.

But you're not that special
I hate to break it to you, but you are not as important or unique as you seem to think you are.

Hate to break it to you love
I do not enjoy saying this to you, but it is the truth.

No you're not that different
You are not as distinct or exceptional as you believe you are.

Not a diamond in the rough
You are not a hidden or undiscovered gem, as you may imagine yourself to be.

Sitting undisguised in enemy terrain
You are openly revealing yourself in a place where you are not welcome and others may be hostile towards you.

Circled in by judgements throbbing through that forehead vein
You are surrounded by people who are judging you harshly, causing you extreme stress and tension.

But they don't mean squat love
Their opinions and criticisms hold no real value or significance, my dear.

I don't have to be saint
I am not perfect and I do not have to be.

You always want it perfect
You have unrealistic expectations and always demand things be perfect, which is not always possible.

Well not everything's so quaint
The world is not always simple or picturesque, my dear. Reality is often messy and complicated.
