"Tug Of War" lyrics

You never wanted, you never needed
How come I turn around and then you are defeated?
This tug of war is getting out of hand
I'm sick and tired of figuring it out

But you said
"Don't beat yourself, try to get away 'cause you can"
"Don't beat yourself, try to get away 'cause you can," oh

You never lost it, but my affection
It got infected by your overbearing pressure
The power struggle was inside your mind
A toxic relation never has a good
Start, it's mad
How you playin' a new role every time
It's not against you, but I'm going mental

"Don't beat yourself, try to get away 'cause you can"
"Don't beat yourself, try to get away 'cause you can"
(Oh I can, yes I can, yes I can, yes I)

Victimize, neutralize me
But let me out

Looking to escape
Please just let me out, I need to break free
Looking to escape, please just let me out
Were we ever friends?
