Wired Wrong

Hold still. This will only take a second. Hold still. You take me apart to see what's inside Line up the pieces you'd rather not hide I let you handle every wire wrong I never once believed I would belong You test the current, watch me twitch and bend Call it devotion, call it the end I count the screws you left on the floor I used to be something, I'm not anymore Turn the dial, turn it till it screams Nothing here is what it seems Strip the wiring, cut it clean The worst of me is what you need Wired wrong, wired wrong, you made me this way Wired wrong, wired wrong, and I'm the one who'll pay Every part you touch corrodes into your hands I keep coming back, I don't think you understand Wired wrong, wired wrong, you made me this way I'm the wreck you built and I'm the wreck that'll stay I offered up the parts you couldn't use The ones that overheat, the ones that bruise You keep the good and grind the rest to nothing I hand you every flaw and call it something You rearrange the parts that used to work I let you sharpen every single hurt I used to run on more than what you give Barely wired enough to still exist Turn the dial, turn it till it screams Nothing here is what it seems Strip the wiring, cut it clean Tell me why you still need me Wired wrong, wired wrong, you made me this way Wired wrong, wired wrong, and I'm the one who'll pay Every part you touch corrodes into your hands I keep coming back, I don't think you understand Wired wrong, wired wrong, you made me this way I'm the wreck you built and I'm the wreck that'll stay Maybe I was never meant to run Maybe I was finished before I'd begun You keep rebuilding what you tore apart Calling every fracture a fresh start Hold still. Hold still. HOLD STILL Wired wrong, WIRED wrong, you made me this way Wired wrong, WIRED wrong, and I'm the one who'll pay Every part you touch corrodes into your hands I keep coming back, you'll never understand Wired wrong, WIRED wrong, you made me this way I'm the wreck you built and I'm the wreck that'll stay Hold still. Almost done. Hold still. Almost done.
