Political |
| I was tired of being put right down |
| by myself for not being what you |
| thought you had found |
| pulled hard in two directions by a desire to learn |
| and my old affections |
| when i tried to share my world with you |
| you could not seem to tolerate |
| the people i had grown to love |
| they shrank under your scrutiny, |
| became the ones you’d hate |
| why did everything, every little thing |
| every little thing |
| with you and me have to be so political? |
| i was feeling a little underwhelmed |
| about hanging around with you and |
| feeling over cautious |
| every word, every little look, every little sign |
| every little phrase |
| put me deeper in your doghouse |
| you’d let me out to run across your world |
| i ran into a wall you told me i built you |
| then you’d reel me in, ream me out, pick me up push me out again |
| -and then repeat it too busy tripping on my tongue |
| to try and stand my ground |
| i can still see myself crying in your lap |
| asking you are you happy with the man you have found? |
| i’m greatful for what you did for me i can see things now i never would have seen |
| today i thought about what could have been |
| but could never be for you and me because everything, every little thing |
| every little thing |
| wtih you and me had to be so political |
