Before you're pointing at me   There is a possibility   You better turn that thing around   Nothing comes easily   So don't you tread on me   'Cause I will knock you down      Some days it seems, it's not worth it   The fight in me is all gone   And I'm not trying to be perfect   But just get one damn thing done   Before I lose control   I pick myself up off the floor      Before you're pointing at me   There is a possibility   You better turn that thing around   Nothing comes easily   So don't you tread on me   'Cause I will knock you down      Never come a day that?ll solve you   Consequently I could never leave you   In the shadow of those looming battleships   I love the canoe   I?m ready for the falls   And the still waters, we will find our truth      Oh, there?s a clock in my head   And despite what it said   Another one on the wall   They don?t agree at all   And there's a schism in me   And despite what you see   You might see me as calm   But I go off like a bomb      Before you're pointing at me   There is a possibility   You better turn that thing around   Nothing comes easily   So don't you tread on me   'Cause I will knock you down      Oh, in the comfort of strangers   You don?t see the danger   Of just letting it flow   This I know      Before you're pointing at me   There is a possibility   You better turn that thing around   Nothing comes easily   So don't you tread on me   'Cause I will knock you down
