I Didn’t Ask For This (Lonely Version) Lyrics by Beth Crowley

Unabridged

2023

[Verse 1]
Strike first
Make it hurt
When everyone assumes the worst
I never have to say I'm sorry
Spiteful
Ruinous
I'm all things you feared I was
Another villain in your story
[Pre-Chorus]
You think that I'm a spitfire?
You should
Afraid you're on my bad side?
That's good
If I wanted to end you
I could
I could
[Chorus]
I'm sinking down
If you only knew how hard it is
For me to climb out
I'm kicking and screaming
But no one can hear me
So what happens now
The shadows are creeping in
I didn't ask for
I didn't ask for this
[Verse 2]
Cold rage
Hides the shame
Of images I can't escape
Scars that live under the surface
It's strange
What I became
When part of me was ripped away
And replaced with something worthless
[Pre-Chorus]
You think that I'm a spitfire?
You should
Afraid you're on my bad side?
That's good
If I wanted to end you
I could
I could
[Chorus]
I'm sinking down
If you only knew how hard it is
For me to climb out
I'm kicking and screaming
But no one can hear me
So what happens now
The shadows are creeping in
I didn't ask for
I didn't ask for this
[Bridge]
Take what's left
Of my fractured heart
Bloodstained 'cause
The pieces are so sharp
Take what's left
Of my fractured heart
Bloodstained 'cause
The pieces are so sharp
[Chorus]
I'm sinking down
If you only knew how hard it is
For me to climb out
I'm kicking and screaming
But no one can hear me
So what happens now
The shadows are creeping in
I didn't ask for
I didn't ask for this
Never forget
I didn't ask for this
