verse 1 , throw your best shot right at me Cause pain, I can take it easily Did you really think I'd fall to my knees Just to pray for some sweet simplicity? Pre-Chorus Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights Power, power I will never understand the power you're holding over me Power, power Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long verse 2 Pain, just synapses firing in our brain So when you cut me, cut me deep Hurt the ones you love the most easily Cause in time we show our Achilles's heels Pre-Chorus Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart, too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight And woah the air is on fire, this room feels electric, cord here in your sights Power, power I will never understand the power you're holding over me Power, power Oh you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long Bridge If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder (Hit me, hit me harder) Cause you better knock me out the first time And if you're do this with the plaster (Do this with the plaster) If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this Power, power Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me Power, power I will never understand the way I let you hold it over me Power, power Well you've had it too long, yes you've had it too long Power, oh, oh, power, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Power, power I let you have it too long, yes you've had it too long
