Emancipate Myself |
| As if I’d sing that song to you, |
| you probably think you deserve it at the present time |
| But if only you knew how you treated me when we were together then you might understand. |
| Remember the time you made me wait for a month when you had exams, |
| which I was cool about |
| but then the night you finished you barred me from all your plans |
| and you went out with other people. |
| Now I’ll always give you the benefit of the doubt |
| and I think there’s enough natural maturity floating around for the tension and |
| release time to even out between two |
| people like you and me. |
| And I’ve been thinking and since we’ve broken up |
| I’ve realised things were mostly in your favour |
| and a normal person wouldn’t put up with this |
| but for some stupid reason I don’t wanna move on. |
| And now I’m stuck in a moment |
| It’s bad for my health |
| Well I’m gone |
| If I don’t emancipate myself |
| Now I gotta say that all of this is coming down on me like a tonne of bricks at this present time, |
| I don’t have much cash, |
| I’m just trying to figure out the rest of my life. |
| But I think a lot of people would agree that all you need is a feeling of freedom |
| and when you’re in emotional limbo, everything think about and do is filtered |
| through that. |
| But I don’t wanna make you unhappy or jealous in any way |
| because ultimately in life it’s your own choice who you surround yourself with, |
| and I’m responsible for those things too. |
| And I’ve treated people badly at times in relationships |
| and maybe what you’re doing is some kind of payback for all those past lives, |
| but that also doesn’t change the fact that |
| Now I’m stuck in a moment |
| It’s bad for my health |
| Well I’m gone |
| If I don’t emancipate myself |
| There’s no spirit to find me And no wishing well |
| Well I’m gone |
| If I don’t emancipate myself |
| Set me free |
| Alright |
| I’ve gotta get myself out of this thing |
| If its the last thing i ever do So whatcha gonna do now? |
| What you gonna keep me hanging on or something are you? |
| You gonna keep me hanging on You gonna keep me hanging on You gonna keep me hanging on You gonna keep me hanging on You gonna keep me hanging on |
| 'Cos I have a feeling it’s all in my own mind and if i have anything to do with |
| it knowing me I enjoy putting myself through this kind of trauma to a degree, |
| How 'bout you? |
| Thought so Maybe you shouldn’t call me anymore because I need some time to get to know |
| myself again, |
| then once again we say it’s final then I’m gonna miss you even more, |
| even the most. |
| I don’t want you to know that I’m missing you, |
| yeah let’s establish even more communication breakdown and then wonder why |
| later on all the honesty and trust is gone between us. |
| Now I’m stuck in a moment |
| It’s bad for my health |
| Well I’m gone |
| If I don’t emancipate myself |
| There’s no spirit to find me And no wishing well |
| Well I’m gone |
| If I don’t emancipate myself |
| Got to get out |
| Well this things been going on for too long baby |
| And i’ve got to do something for myself for a while |
| Cos you’ve been treating me so bad for so long |
| And it just can’t go on, it can’t go on. |
| Well I dont want you calling me oon the telephone, |
| and i dont wanna see your face no more |
| Yeah thats right |
