Yo-Yo
It's broken, I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
I keep hangin' around, got some attachment to you
Way down is to where you get through
I told myself it isn't right, but it isn't wrong
Yet I found the more you "hot and cold" me
The more I need protecting
Can't hear myself singin' the same sad song
Oh, and it's not hard to figure out
Why I am never too far from the floor
You can only take me up and down
I've got to move forward, so I've cut the cord
It's broken, I can't let that hope in, I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
You're leavin' me no choice, then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo, I don't come back when I'm thrown
Hey
I keep hangin' around but can't defy gravity
Rebound every time you touch me
I told myself it isn't right, but it isn't wrong (yeah)
Yet I found the more you "high and low" me
The more I need stability
(Yeah, yeah, yeah) can't hear myself singin' this for too long
Oh, and now you've come to face the fact
But I'm running fast as I can to the door
'Cause you just wanna swing me up and back
And I've got to move forward, so I've cut the cord
It's broken, I can't let that hope in, I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
You're leavin' me no choice, then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo, I don't come back when I'm thrown
Hey, I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
Didn't I adore you?
Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied? Didn't I?
Didn't I assure you?
For every climb, there is a downward slide that I can't ride
Didn't I adore you?
Didn't I bend to keep you satisfied? Didn't I?
Didn't I assure you?
For every climb, there is a downward slide, I had to cut the cord
Ah, it's broken, I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
You're leavin' me no choice, then I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo, I don't come back when I'm thrown
Oh, I know what you want
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go, not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go, not a thing you let go
Oh, no, no, I'll be on my way
I'm not a yo-yo, not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go (not a thing you let go)
Not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go
I'm not a yo-yo, I'm not a thing you let go
I keep hangin' around, got some attachment to you
Way down is to where you get through
I told myself it isn't right, but it isn't wrong
Yet I found the more you "hot and cold" me
The more I need protecting
Can't hear myself singin' the same sad song
Oh, and it's not hard to figure out

I'm not a yo-yo, not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go (not a thing you let go)
Not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go
Not a thing you let go
