Always tell me what I'm allowed to say And should think, and should feel Tell me how to behave It's true you weren't the only one I gave permission to tell me how to run my life But now that's over, I have grown I want to make decisions on my own You can't own me again, I can't live that way And this time, I'm mine, and I'll break away Cause you, you never were enough And I'm, I'm just giving up on you, we're through Cause you were never good enough For so long I lay down and looked away I used any reason or excuse to disengage My time was spent under a spell I tried sleeping right through my hell Nightmares scared me awake I realized my life's at stake You can't own me again, I can't live that way And this time, I'm mine, and I'll break away Cause you, you never were enough And I'm, I'm just giving up on you, we're through Cause you were never good enough I'm just waiting, anticipating, tired of complaining You hear what I'm saying? You can't own me again, I can't live that way And this time, I'm mine, and I'll break away Cause you, you never were enough And I'm, I'm just giving up on you, we're through Cause you were never good enough
