Lyrics:
I'm tired of living in your box
I'm sick of playing by your rules
You've got me so afraid to breathe
But I refuse to be your fool
I can't be bothered by your feelings
When you're disregarding mine
And now I'm stepping past the doorway
Just to leave this shit behind
You think you know me
You think you've got me figured out
Hope you're ready for the truth

This is who I am
This is what I do
Think I give a damn
If it bothers you

Have you heard a single word I've said?
You're more trouble than you're worth
You think you know what's best for my life
Now I know I've had enough
Too long I've sat here on the sidelines
And I've let you play your games
My anger's boiling up inside me
and you're standing in my way
Can't live like this
I need to regain control
I'm taking it back now

This is who I am
This is what I do
Think I give a damn
If it bothers you

You think you know me
You think you've got me figured out
Hope you're ready for the truth

This is who I am
This is what I do
Think I give a damn
If it bothers you
