I watched helpless as I was    stripped of my convictions   I was beaten, broken   stomped down on for abusing   my addictions   I've been doing what I hate   and forsaking what I love for you    I've been looked down on   condescended until I'm done   so this is what you call fun      So I cry out to you   Reach out to me   Hold me close and don't ever set me free   I need to be loved      I may not see eye to eye with what you do   I don't need to   I feel low I feel high I don't know why I don't      My convictions they're all contradictions   I've been doing what I hate   and forsaking what I love for you   I'm looked down on   I've been condescended until I'm done   So this is what you call fun      So I cry out to you   Reach out to me   Hold me close and don't ever set me free   I need to be loved      I may not see eye to eye with what you do   I don't need to   I feel low I feel high I dont know why I don't
