How We Feel
Each day that goes by, I come out of my shellKnowing this world will always be hellYou people walk around, your lives are so fakeBut I’ve still taken in your bad habits to breakI find myself wandering down these old streets of litterYet you think your “sorrys” will just make things betterYour words alone can’t sweep these streets in my mindI still know what happened, it comes up all the timeThe Buildings above tower high above my head And you never knew how I used to cry in bedI see that everything’s out and everything showsIt’s just a shame that nobody knowsSo why can’t you leave this shallow old city?Because you’ve gone before, and it wasn’t that prettyYet somehow we always end up with the short end of the ropeAnd nobody’s there to help us all cope.When you were around, we gave it a breakYeah, the smile on my face had always been fakeWe all knew you were pretending, you’re to blameYou never knew I too would play your little gameIt seems it will never end, no matter what we doI think about what happened and the blame is still on youPlease tell me your relationship isn’t at all realBecause no one bothered to ask at all how we feel8-1-01, Written November 25th, 2001 © on Nov 24 2001 03:46 PM PST 18 • 0 • 10
