Side Effects Lyrics - Artist : Carey, Mariah
It's M.C. and Y.J
Another hit, OK We lookin' fly, takin' off Saw us on a runway On any given Sunday, Monday, Tuesday They try to confuse me I never let 'em use me I was a girl, you was the man I was too young to understand I was naïve, I just believed Everything that you told me Said you were strong, protecting me Then I found out that you were weak Keeping me there, under your thumb 'Cause you were scared that I'd become much More than you could handle Shining like a chandelier That decorated every room inside The private hell we built And I dealt with it Like a kid, I wished I could fly away, but instead I kept my tears inside 'Cause I knew if I started, I'd keep cryin' For the rest of my life with you I finally built up the strength to walk away Don't regret it, but I still live with the side effects Waking up scared some nights Still dreaming about them violent times Still a little protective 'bout the people that I let inside Still a little defensive, thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life Still a little depressed inside I fake a smile and deal with the side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Vacant inside, no one was there Couldn't be real, had to keep quiet Once in a while, put up a fight It's just too much, night after night After a while, I would just lie You was dead wrong, said you was right Did what I could just to survive Couldn't believe this was my life Flickering like a candle Doing my best to handle sleeping with the enemy Aware that he was smothering every last part of me So I broke away and finally found the strength to leave Kept the tears inside 'Cause I knew if I started I'd keep crying For the rest of my life with you I finally built up the strength to walk away Don't regret it, but I still live with the side effects Waking up scared some nights Still dreaming about them violent times Still a little protective 'bout the people that I let inside Still a little defensive, thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life Still a little depressed inside I fake a smile and deal with the side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) (Hey, hey, hey, let's go!) Hey, magnifical, or should I say magnificent? (Yeah) Ain't nothing worth your happiness And I ain't caring who you're with Misery loves company So we ain't tryna hang with y'all Hurt you if you let 'em in Gotta keep your circle small Keep tryin' to play apology I tell him I ain't bowlin' though Think they want me outta here I tell 'em I ain't goin' though Side effects be drowsiness, loneliness How is this? I think the call it hateration What can you prescribe for this? Forgive, but I can't forget Every day I deal with this I live with the side effects But I ain't gon' let them get the best of me (I forgive) Forgive, but I can't forget (My) Every day I deal with this I live with the side effects But I ain't gon' let them get the best of me (Hey, oh) I kept my tears inside 'Cause I knew if I started I'd keep crying For the rest of my life with you I finally built up the strength to walk away (The strength to walk away) Don't regret it, but I still live with the side effects Waking up scared some nights (Hey, hey) Still dreaming about them violent times (Said I still wake up) Still a little protective about the people that I let inside (Cryin) Still a little defensive, thinkin' folks be tryin' to run my life Still a little depressed inside I fake a smile and deal with the side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) Side effects (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh) |
