    This phrase has several meanings. I wrote this song in an attempt to get a least three of them into one song. At the time, it was the best way I could think of to epitomize the person I wrote it for.

    Lyrics
    If I wished you well, you’d mess yourself up to spite me
    And if I offered my life, you’d keep me alive just to fight me
    What do you want, what do you need
    You ask to be carried, then quickly you plead

    Put me down…

    If I ran away, you’d hunt me back down and you’d find me
    But if I tried to stay, how little you care you’d remind me
    I’m probably to blame that we’ve come to this
    ‘Cause I leave myself open and you never miss

    Put me down, ‘cause it’s what I deserve
    Put me down, for having the nerve
    Put me down… ‘Cause I had the nerve to care

    So if I told the truth, how cynical I’ve come to be
    Sometimes I pray that you’ll find the strength
    To end what you’ve started with me
    Cause I gave you my heart, and I knew you’d break it
    Here’s your big chance girl so why don’t you take it

    Put me down, ‘cause I want this to end
    Put me down, if you were ever my friend
    Put me down… Why don’t you please put me down
