I used to be here all alone Now I have company But I can't stand a word you say It holds no consequence to me Now you found me, skin and bone I used to have teeth I found the strength to run away But this freedom wasn’t my escape 'Cause I just wanna be adored I don't wanna be ignored My time’s a blessing, not a curse But your patience only makes it worse You left me writhing on the floor Dripping with disease I found the time to suffocate The reason for this new mistake 'Cause I just wanna be adored I don't wanna be ignored My time's a blessing, not a curse But your patience only makes it worse 'Cause you want something more Than I can deliver I have praise for the familiar But watching it slip away is the hardest part I just wanna be adored I don't wanna be ignored My time's a blessing, not a curse But your patience only makes it worse It only makes it worse
