Tone: Annoyed, Hopeless, Frustrated
It's not just about you and me anymore
I feel the tension within the core
Inside me I feel the eruption--I'm angry
What else is there to prove why I mourn
To you, you don't see the tears--the frsutration,
all you can see is your head strong ways
So that builds the tension
The earthquake within me
It's tearing me apart
What do I tell you to get you to loosen up
Before, I'd look at you, as you towered over me and had my respect
Now, I look down on you and can't seem to get
Myself to look back at you and understand why
It's one against a million--literally
So tell me why
All you've done
In the time up til' now
All this unnecessary heart ache
What are we to do now
So I look at you with a different set of eyes
There's no more I can do excpect watch the situation go by
No matter what I say--my opinion doesn't matter
Only if you would give me time
Then maybe we could get together
Understand that even I know what's going on
And the dangers we're facing because of you
I don't want to walk away
But it's becoming that way
Only if you would understand
Because you're not making any sense
This situation.
Is Tearing me apart
The tornado that swirls with my emotions
Turns into a hurricane and then everything is broken
I've erupted
I've split
I've caused myself to fall
What else does it take for you to get what is all
Left for me
Because I just want to smile
Not in your glory
But in one that I caused
I want to be happy
That's all I ask
Why is that you don't understand?
