It tasted like Coffee - your kiss on my mouth.
A sugary fever - you've spun me right out.
Your voice cut right through me.
Stopped dead in my tracks.
Bristling with bulls**t
I won't take it back - take it back.
Talk about a wake-up call
When you said, "You're small"
Now I'm standing tall
I will dare you to take me on...
Been living so softly since it all began.
Been burning my bridges
As fast as I can - as I can
Talk about a wake-up call
When you said, "You're small"
Now I'm standing tall
And I dare you to take me on...
In a way forgotten - watched you fall to the bottom...
in a way forgotten...
But you can never tell...
One nice purple bruise - one you'd like to lose
Wear it like a rosette - one you'd like to forget
One you'd like to forget....
One you'd like to forget...
One you'd like to forget...
One you'd like to...
Talk about a wake-up call
When you said, "You're small"
Now I'm standing tall - and I dare you to take me on.
