lyrics

Get ready, I'm docile right now,

but get ready 'cause I've always been defensive,

and my anger is peeking out.

Get ready, I'm docile right now,

but get ready 'cause I've always been offended

by the things that you say,

and the price that I pay,

for the lack of control I take.

Get ready, I'm docile right now,

but get ready 'cause I'm somewhat tempermental

when I get pushed around.

Get ready, I'm submissive right now,

but get ready 'cause my patience is wearing thinner,

and I can not predict the outcome when I slip.

I can't say I'll regain my grip.

What do I do to deserve this?

Give me a reason to work it out,

and I'll try but do not be surprised

when I fail to prevail over time.

The breaking point is neigh!

And you know, I'm lacking self control.

It's too much of a mess to behold.

Don't request tollerance.

Don't ask for adherance.

Don't excuse intrusion.

I itch for retribution.

Get ready, I'm docile right now,

but get ready 'cause my anger's been brewing!

And, when my pot explodes

it's time to exchange blows.

It's too late to abate the damage you will wear

from the lack of restraint I bear.
