I feel myself    Under your thumb   Your hate for me   I know where the pain comes from      Your controlling hands   Pulling my strings   Protect me from fate   Every lethal dose it brings      Try to unleash myself   And start over again   Under your thumb you control me   Beaten like a dog for my sins      Your noose rubs my neck raw   Choking me blue   A lethal fixation on asphyxiation   I'm dying to get back at you      The harder I fight   The harder I fall   Sometimes I wish I knew   What it's like to be invincible      Holding me down   And smashing me   The weight of your commands   Crushing all my dreams      Let me a little slack   And finally let me breathe   This leash around my neck   Tightens if I disagree      Collar of suffering   Neck is broke   Every man knows freedom   But to me it's a joke
