Ballad of an over thinker

God I'm begging

God I'm begging, give these girls a break

Because sometimes they are given way more than they can take

The constant prodding and forcing of wills

It's only so much time till all of their hearts will break

the tears they shed

And the unwanted intimacy that they learned to dread

Have led to a loss of faith

And I too have drifted down this path

Much to my demise

But it's hard to see clearly with tears in my eyes

Sometimes it's hard to think that there's love

A sighting that is as rare as a winter dove

How selfish schedules have been designed by the one who promised protection

The deepest scars are on the softest hearts

And maybe thats by design

The pain is a part of the process

To create the careful women

Who love with uncaring passion
