"Pin Me Down" lyrics

I try to hide and deny my inner thoughts and true reactions
By fooling myself with ill-concealed dissatisfaction
I can't take it anymore, I can't stand the situation
I don't want to be a victim of another confrontation

I'll pretend that I know I need you to sympathize
I'm so unsure of myself so please don't you criticize
You can bend me and shake me
You can twist me till I break
And whatever you do, I'll take the blame for your mistakes

Pin me down, I put my hands over my mouth
When I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it out

Pin me down
I put my hands over my mouth when I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it out

You wanna shake me up just so you can mould me in
You wanna fold me out just so you can fit me in
You feed me full with your discriminating, terrible lies
What do you want from me, should I believe in all your alibis?

I don't know where to go, so which way should I turn?
I try to understand but you don't want me to learn
You tie my feet to the ground, there's not a chance I can walk
I wanna scream but you gag my mouth so I can't talk

Pin me down, I put my hands over my mouth
When I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it out

Pin me down, I put my hands over my mouth
When I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it, letting it out

Letting it out
Letting it out
Letting it out
You wanna stretch me out just so you can pin me down
You wanna dry me out just so you watch me drown
You wanna watch me starve so you can force me to eat
And then you knock me down when I'm back on my feet

Pin me down, I put my hands over my mouth
When I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it out

Pin me down, I put my hands over my mouth
When I need to shout
You pin me down
I learn to hate myself instead of letting it out
Pin me down
You pin me down
