Letting the Telephone Ring |
I am letting the telephone ring |
Cause i don’t want to know why |
I don’t want to hear you explain |
I don’t want to hear you cry |
I have written so much about you |
So much i thought i knew |
Words like water used to flow |
Now what could i possibly have to say? |
She is someone i don’t even know |
And all the things that you’ve given to me |
I see now were simply reparations |
They were gifts of your guilt |
They were my preparation |
I know i should be mature |
Keep my feet on the floor |
But for some reason |
I just don’t want them anymore |
I know this shouldn’t be important |
Compared to you and i |
But i can still hear my questions |
And i can still hear you |
I can still hear you |
Lie |
Now vicariously i have her in me |
I want to peel off my skin |
Let the water wash in |
You always said that i was hiding |
That i was hiding from you |
But you are capable of things i could not do |
You are capable of things i could not do |
I remember how you pretended |
How you pretended to touch me |
I remember how i couldn’t bring myself to believe |
I remember wondering |
What was wrong |
What was wrong |
How could i be so naive |
How could i be so naive? |
