Undermine Me
Words/Music by Brian Griffin (6-28-01)

It won’t take much for you to
Go and undermine me
My plans will fail like a house of cards
Tossed about in the breeze
It may seem like I am in charge
and that I’m wild and free
But all it would take is one look from you
To go and undermine me

Undermine, undermine undermine me
Knock me down for the count, down on my knees
Cut me to the quick, the end comes so quickly
When you undermine, undermine, undermine me

I talk fast, but my legs they shake
I’m ready to buckle and fall
Tryin to keep ahold of myself
It’s gonna take my all
Smiling through facade smile
Slowly breaking apart
Ending up being all finished
Before I even get to start

(chorus)

I’m being undermined by all I say and do
Caught- stuck in a rut that I put myself through
You may want to try to let yourself in
But my guard keeps falling down again and again
My guard keeps falling down again and again and again
When you undermine me-
(instrumental)

It doesn’t take much for me to
Undermine myself
I do it all- without help
from anybody else
Maybe tonight will be the time
When everything will go alright
So here I sit- a walking wreck
Ready to crumble at your sight

(Repeat chorus twice)

It won’t take much for you to
Go and undermine me
