lyrics

I'm crying but you just ignore my tears as they fall to the ground
I'm dying but you just close the door and you crush my hands
I'm crawling, trying to stand, attempting to plant my feet on the ground
And you see me trying to break free and you pushed me back on my knees

You've caged me, ripped my heart in two I'm trying to get up - escape from you
You breaked me, stepped on my soul, I'm trying to get lose - regain my whole

And you tainted me but I let you
and you slaved me I let you
and you burned me I've never been so down
No more I say (I'll be better off this way)

I was prying into your mind trying to understand your ways
I was lying to myself pretending to live in heaven when it was hell
I fell down, got kicked on the floor when I tried to walk out your door
And you saw me begging at your knees but you had a way to make me not want to free

You tainted me
You slaved me
You burned me
You tainted me
You slaved me
You burned me
No more
No more
No more
No more
I'm better off this way

about

Rose Cora Perry London, Ontario

A "one-of-a-kind talent", Perry's vocals have been said to be the "perfect blend of Alanis and Norah Jones" (Kaotic Notes), while her songwriting is full of "raw viseral power, killer hooks and punch-in-the-gut riffs" (Spill Magazine)
