I Own You

The Sound of Madness (Deluxe Edition)

Verse 1:
Come on in and take a seat
Tell me how you feel this week
Are you cursed?
Are you blessed?
Are you still inside the mess?
All those feelings wrapped around you
Hold you down so you can’t break thru
It’s a trap so don’t ask
It’s a shadow on your back
It don’t burn, it don’t bleed
Still it cuts you at the knees
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know you got to break thru

Chorus:
Hey c’est la vie
Remember me I made you
Dressed and trained you
Hey it’s bittersweet
You can’t kill me with kindness
I don’t buy it
Strip down
Show me flesh and bone
Strip down
Cuz now I own you

Verse 2:
Take a breath
Hold it in
Now look up
Let’s begin
Lesson learned
Take your turn
Now you come around again
All those feelings that surround you
Hold you down so you can’t break thru
Time is up
Take your shot
Cuz your stories all you got
Don’t back down
Don’t say no
Just exhale and let go
All this pressure that surrounds you
Holds you down but you know you got to break thru

Chorus
(Guitar Solo)
(Low volume telephone vocals-incoherent)
Strip down until your flesh and bone
Cuz now I own you…
Chorus

Now I own you
Now I own you
Now I own you
Now I own you
