lyrics

I’ve had enough, of these eggshells
I’ve had enough, of being scared
I’ve had enough, of your angry eyes
I’ve had enough, of your criticise
I’ve had enough, of your lies
You’ve had enough, of my cries
I’ve had enough, of this feeling
I’ve got to do me some healing

You’re like a bomb, bomb
Ready to explode
You’re like a gun, gun
Ready to reload
No empathy, Hey!
Just be hurting me
So can’t you see
Why you can’t have me
Why you don’t have me

I’m free of you, and you’re misery
I’m free of you, and I’m happy
I’m free of you, and I am strong
I’m free of you, cos now you’re gone
I’m free of you, so I can thrive
I’m free of you, don’t just survive
I’m free of you, and that feeling
I’m free of you, now I’m healing

You’re like a bomb, bomb
Ready to explode
You’re like a gun, gun
Ready to reload
No empathy, Hey!
Just be hurting me
So can’t you see
Why you can’t have me

You’re like a bomb, bomb
Ready to explode
You’re like a gun, gun
Ready to reload
No empathy, Hey!
Just be hurting me
So can’t you see
Why you can’t have me
Why you don’t have me

You’re like a bomb, bomb
Ready to explode
You’re like a gun, gun
Ready to reload
No empathy, Hey!
Just be hurting me
So can’t you see
Why you can’t have me

You’re like a bomb, bomb
Ready to explode
You’re like a gun, gun
Ready to reload
No empathy, Hey!
Just be hurting me
So can’t you see
Why you can’t have me
Why you don’t have me
