"Robbing Banks" lyrics

"Robbing Banks"

I dress down
To feel inferior to you
Sold my tears
They drop like Niagara Falls

Only takes one second
To be inconsolable
Broken my resolve so when you push me
I will fall
I am not a monument to what I used to be
A former warrior

I have robbed a million banks
I have killed a thousand flies
With all this history in my catalogue
I've secrets deep inside

There's no end to all this daylight
There is no sign of the night
All I have to do is suffer
'Cause I can't put up a fight

I've become
A sad, shrinking violet caged
For I once was strong
Now I'm periodically undone

I have robbed a million banks
I have killed a thousand flies
With all this history in my catalogue
I've secrets deep inside

There's no end to all this daylight
There is no sign of the night
All I have to do is suffer
'Cause I can't put up a fight

You are more than I can handle
You are more than I can stand
You have taken away my dignity
You have made me less of a man

If all I have is gone
Then all I knew was wrong

Curtain call, watch me crawl
Must be malleable
Cut and twist
Bend and break

All I have at stake
Lies with you in your hands
I can a see a clenched fist
Form and aim at me

I have robbed a million banks
I have killed a thousand flies
With all this history in my catalogue
I've secrets deep inside

There's no end to all this daylight
There is no sign of the night
All I have to do is suffer
'Cause I can't put up a fight

You are more than I can handle
You are more than I can stand
You have taken away my thunder
You have made me less of a man

If all I have is gone
Then all I knew was wrong

It all comes back to you
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
