The Fountains

How can I say Something that has not already been said? How can I give you Words that have never been read? How can I tell you something That you never thought you would hear? How can I crawl into your mind And make everything clear? You keep asking me for things I could never do They are not within my power It's not that I don't love you So please stop questioning my devotion I already feel so inferior to you I often question myself too Asking myself why you gave me a chance But lately I feel like giving it back I would rather be empty handed Than have to carry a heavy load all the time You make me want to drop it, drop it all And pick up my life I'm coming up empty with reasons to stay You don't seem satisfied, I'm not satisfied With anything these days The fountain of love, the fountain of life Our fountain of love, our fountain of life Both are running dry And your crying is of no use Your tears won't fill them back up in time No need for mental abuse It just places more cracks and holes In to our fountains and In to our lives Written February 13th, 2002 © on Feb 13 2002 06:20 AM PST   10 • 0
