Punch Bag

I feel like a punch bag
Always ends up at me
Try to get your payback
It’s difficult to see
Where you are directing it
Just put away your fists
Cause you’ll be over this

I feel like a stress ball when you squeeze me tight
You don’t need me
I’m put away when you’re alright
I’m always keeping my shape
Bouncing back all of my weight
No reason to retaliate

I just keep it physical
Never get emotional
Still I’m giving it my all
And here’s what I get back
Here’s what I get back
I feel like I’m wearing out
Can’t keep it up forever now
Cause I am damaged how should I repair

You think that my silence
Means I don’t really care
You think that my patience
Means I’m not really there
I wish I never said
I understood what you meant
I don’t wanna make a dent

Given up a little
But I won’t make you choose
I know it’s hypocritical
To take it out on you
Let me out of the cage
Be soaking up all my rage
I think I’ve made a mistake

I just keep it physical
Never get emotional
Still I’m giving it my all
How will I get back
Will I get back

Build me up and tare me down
Can’t we find a way around
Oh do you think we are beyond repair
Losing all your honesty
Turn your back away from me
You know I try but how can I repair

Now there ain’t no hand to hold
You’ll be worth the wait in gold
But I am silent how should I repair
I have gone too far
Got to the end of your tether
I feel like a fool
Like I’ve been singing this forever
But I just want some more
Never ending train of though
Until you have to cut me short
