lyrics

You ripped out my heart
threw it into traffic and slammed it back to my chest
complete with tire marks and gravel.
Everything was going so well
'til I dosed you with some attitude -
You were getting in my way. I had my hands full with things to do.

Wouldn't shut up!

Pushed all my buttons like we were in an elevator with 80 floors.

Tried to calm you down!

Your disproportionate overreaction, narcissistic speech, and verbal abusive jabs -
they knocked out all my teeth.
And I'm a woman of my word - Irish Sicilian blood
and I think I'm a nice person
but you forced this tidal wave into flood.

Screamed and cursed obscenities
cuz you tried to get the best of me.

You're worn out asleep
and I'm still rattled and bleeding.
Turned me inside out, body beating like a drum.
So after I cursed you out and slammed the door, I started blasting 'Bubblegum'.

And I was texting Maria
acting like nothing was wrong.
I was talking online to Sean
coming down from a battle so strong,
while reading books and drinking tea
wondering if my anger will always get the best of me...
