Missing Takes

Tone It Down

Missing Takes


No need to rub it in
‘Cause now I understand
Though all the good you do
It’s getting out of hand

Don’t overrate your deeds
Shove ’em down my throat
This pride is fucking it up
So recognize that

I can’t fix this
It’s your own mess
Clean it up or I’m gone

You raise your voice to win
Another argument
But yelling makes no sense
Won’t prove anything

Find the middle ground
You’ve made yourself quite clear
So open up your ears
And tone your voice down

I can’t fix this
It’s your own mess
Clean it up or I’m gone

I’ll turn my back on you
I’m giving up
Stick with your own convictions
Let’s just talk, try not to fight
I don’t wanna hear that you’re right

This is not a war, and you’re not in charge
Don’t push me around
Fighting the world is a battle you can never win

Push everyone away
So arrogant and proud
It’s just the way you are
A needy in denial
