What you did to me made me See myself something different Though I try to talk sense to myself But I just won't listen
Won't you go away Turn yourself in You're no good at confession Before the image that you burned me in Tries to teach you a lesson
What you did to me made me see myself somethin' awful A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been outbidded
My peace and quiet was stolen from me When I was looking with calm affection You were searching out my imperfections
What wasted unconditional love On somebody Who doesn't believe in the stuff
You came upon me like a hypnic jerk When I was just about settled And when it counts you recoil With a cryptic word and leave a love belittled
Oh what a cold and common low way to go When I was feeding on the need for you to know me Devastated at the rate you fell below me
What wasted unconditional love On somebody Who doesn't believe in the stuff
The cultivation of the pleasures of the senses was ever my principal aim in life, knowing that I was personally calculated to please the fair sex, I always strove to make myself agreeable to it.
I walk by the same pregnant meth addict smoking on her stoop everyday on my way home from work. The scabs and abscesses on her legs and her sunk in empty eyes make me want to cry every time. I consider walking 20 minutes out of my way just to avoid her desperate face, yet I never do and I always look her in the eyes.
Well.....I really expected someone other than my roommate to be peeling me out of this dress tonight, but it's all good. Oldies dance party initiated by yours truly. 3 boozy nights.
