I sort of die out
as your candle burns brighter
I'm taking this hard
You're taking it lighter
I can only freeze, then cry
You don't even stop to wonder why
Please listen to me
You've got to listen to me
You're the morning glory
on the clinging vine
Climbings offered to me
I don't decline
But you put me down
As I climb, I fall down
Please listen to me
You've got to listen to me
You keep pinching my mind and heart
Every time my candle starts
to burn
Whens my turn
But the next time
I climb
I'll make it to the top
You won't have any say
And I won't be able to stop
I'll finally have my way
You better listen to me
Please listen to me
You've got to listen to me
