You creeped up from the shadows, right behind my back
the bitter attention given, sets me up for this attack
you strangle me from behind, and i don't see that it's you
i'm losing all of my breath, i don't know what to do!
i claw at your hands, so that you'll stop gripping my throat
grabbing for a life line, so my head can stay afloat.
i have to try and stay afloat, i have to stay alive
so i can keep dreaming of being that idol in your life.
