She said I don't know if I've ever been good enough
I'm a little bit rusty, and I think my head is caving in
And I don't know if I've ever been really loved
By a hand that's touched me,
Well I feel like
Something's gonna give
And I'm a little bit angry
^^^
I hope you're not intending
To be so condescending
It's as much as i can take
You just refuse to bend so I keep bending till I break
^^^
Right now your world and mine are such different places
Through yours, I wander lost and confused
And I feel like I'm speaking in a different language
And the only words I haven't used, are:
That ain't love, I believe you've got the wrong emotion
That ain't love, at least it doesn't feel like love to me
As long as I say what you wanna hear
Do what you wanna do, be who you want me to be
You think that's love, well baby
THAT AIN'T LOVE TO ME!
^^^
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
And every second I waste is more than I can take
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you
All I want to do is be more like me and be less like you
^^^
And if I'm so wrong,
Why do you listen all night long?
^^^
I wonder
Is this the way life's meant to be?
