SHOULD BE PROUD Lyrics

These nights catch me off guard, it's all falling down

His shots aim to kill 'til I'm still on the ground

And he portrays the victim like no one around

But the devil always finds a way

Now everyone shrugs my name inside and out

And the circus clowns learn that he doesn't amount

To the shit that he claims, or the time that he counts

Now everybody left their has to try to find an out

'Cause they're stuck living in a hell

Cannot be themselves

Everybody wonders how you think you're doing, well?

It's kind of like the sound of your car breaking down

And everybody wonders why I am not on the ground

I didn't make a sound, I thought you should be proud?

But every time I speak it's like you say it's not aloud

Am I aloud to speak?

My plan was to leave him as soon as I can

I cried on the phone talked all night to my friend Jan

About the way that he speaks and the way that he talks to me

When he talks to me

They say, "When you see something wrong, make it right"

But I've never met someone so out of sight

With the way this world works and how to treat someone nicely

And I got out, but I fear they won't

Something got into me, I rolled up my sleeves

And there we go to the place

Where they respect my space and they have manners

And they will never break, 'cause they have standards

I know that jealousy is like therapy or like ecstasy

When your chemistry has no remedy to this song

Am I aloud to speak?

'Cause they're stuck living in a hell

Cannot be themselves

Everybody wonders how you think you're doing, well?

It's kind of like the sound of your car breaking down

And everybody wonders why I am not on the ground

I didn't make a sound, I thought you should be proud?

But every time I speak it's like you say it's not aloud

I thought you should be proud?
