Dumb Enough

You are the lighthouse in the ocean Pointing out the safer path But I preferred adventure I guess you couldn't handle that And when I want to look pretty You prefer me with no makeup on But that day when I lay sick in bed You asked where my effort had gone So am I dumb enough for you yet? Are you satisfied? Put the burden of Atlas on my shoulders Stoop to tell me I look beautiful tonight Am I dumb enough for you yet? Do you feel powerful? Watch me shrivel to try to please you Hold out praises as I crumble And I don't understand Why don't you understand That I'm not your stupid little pet So oh great smart wise master, tell me Am I dumb enough for you yet? You are the strong alpha wolf Leading the pack But you know that's a myth, don't you? You never liked that I no longer show you The things I am proud of Because that would make me A show off, know it all loudmouth Am I dumb enough for you yet? Are you satisfied? Put the burden of Atlas on my shoulders Stoop to tell me I look beautiful tonight Am I dumb enough for you yet? Do you feel powerful? Watch me shrivel to try to please you Hold out praises as I crumble And I don't understand Why don't you understand That I'm not your stupid little pet So oh great smart wise master, tell me Am I dumb enough for you yet? I met you at a bar once Got off stage, you pop up Tell me everything's wrong with how I play I'm young and dumb I think I'm supposed to Stay nice, stay cute, stay kind The ingenue I tried This time I'm over it Goodbye Was I dumb enough for you then? Were you satisfied? Watch the burden slip off my shoulders As I realize I don't need your lies Was I dumb enough for you then? Oh, did you feel powerful? Well I'm fed up with your bullshit It's your turn to crumble And I don't understand Why don't you understand? I was never your stupid little pet So oh great smart wise master Listen close I will never play dumb again
