Push Me Down

The late evening light

Shines like a spotlight

On cobbled stones

And quaint cafes

Here we stand

You say you’re a man

And I’m just a girl

For feeling this way

And I don’t know if I’ll ever know why

You only feel good when you’re making me cry

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

To breathe

When we first met

I wasn’t a threat

Just a pretty young flower

Floating on the breeze

But now you’re scared

And you’re unprepared

‘Cause I’m wild and I’m dangerous

And I’m free

And I don’t know what it was about me

That made me so hard for you to believe

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

To breathe

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

To breathe

I tried to be your friend

But you hurt me time and time and time and time again

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

To breathe

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

You don’t have to push me down

To breathe
