turn on me
You can fake it for a while,
Bite your tongue and smile,
Like every mother does an ugly child.
But the stars are leaking out,
Like spittle from a cloud,
Amassed resentment counting ounce and pound.
You're entertaining any doubt,
Because you had to know that I was fond of you,
Fond of Y-O-U,
Though I knew you masked your disdain.
I can see that change was just too hard for us,
Hard for us.
You always had to hold the reigns,
But where I'm headed,
you just don't know the way.
So affections fade away,
And do adults just learn to play
The most ridiculous, repulsive games?
...
And the tails will never mend,
'Cause you had it in for me so long ago.
Boy, I still don't know,
I don't know why and I don't care,
Well, hardly anymore,
If you'd only seen yourself hating me.
Hating me,
When I've been so much more than fair.
But then you had to lay those feelings bare,
One thing I know still got you scared,
You're all that cold iron,
And never once aired of our dead.
You had to know that I was fond of you,
Fond of Y-O-U.
So I took your licks at the time,
And to change like that is just so hard to do,
Hard to do.
Don't let it whip-crack your life,
And bow out from the fight,
'Cause oh, how your sisters will write.
The worst part is over,
Now, get back on that horse and ride.
Bite your tongue and smile,
Like every mother does an ugly child.
But the stars are leaking out,
Like spittle from a cloud,
Amassed resentment counting ounce and pound.
You're entertaining any doubt,
Because you had to know that I was fond of you,

flip the switch, please!
why do we let our love lives control our moods? a friend and i were sitting down talking about this a few weeks ago and i have since noticed that however my love life is going, it affects my day to day. How lame is that? something so minuscule in the big picture of life can completely change ones out look. why do we put our relationships with the opposite sex so high? is it nature or is it something we have been conditioned to think we need to have? and i am not just talking about myself...i know this goes for everyone. anyone who has ever liked someone. you know that feeling you get when you hear someone likes you or that person flirts with you or compliments you and how great the rest of your day or week can be. And how derailed you get, for a bit, when you realize your feelings aren't being reciprocated by that one person anymore. its something you know you should not let get to you because there are so many other bigger problems in your life and in the world than your crushed heart. if only it could be as easy as an on/off switch. ugh.
