I told you twice to stay away
  I know the games you're going to play
  I'm trying to walk the straightened line
  I don't need your problems killing my time
    Sometimes I feel just like a puppet on a string
  Everybody talks so loud and I can't hear a thing
  Each day I find away to keep myself away from you
    Don't you try to comfort me
  I don't need your sympathy
  This is how it's supposed to be
    Looking through your jaded eyes
  It's so easy just to criticize
  I'm trying to do the best that I can
  I don't expect you to understand
  Don't mean a thing to me you run around like rats
  Speak with authority but never with the facts
  I've been afflicted yeah I'm addicted to you
