|
It isn't fair, it isn't right |
|
I've gone over and over the scenes in my head |
|
Laid here awake both half of the night |
|
And it isn't good, and |
|
I can't let go |
|
Must have been someone or something |
|
I hurtIn some other life somewhere long ago |
|
And I don't know how |
|
I started down this tailspin |
|
Why one more time |
|
I just did not see it coming |
|
And you'd think by now |
|
I'd figured out the pattern |
|
I shook my fist, |
|
I left too soon |
|
The soft wounded animal inside of me |
|
Stood up on its hind legs and howled at the moon |
|
Anger rises in a violent storm |
|
And when I am the wisest |
|
I lay down beside it |
|
And hum in it's ear until it gets quiet |
|
I don't know how |
|
I started down this tailspin |
|
Why one more time |
|
I just did not see it coming |
|
And you'd think by now |
|
I'd figured out the pattern |
|
I don't know how |
|
I started down this tailspin |
|
Why one more time |
|
I just did not see it coming |
|
And you'd think by now |
|
I'd figured out the pattern |
|
It isn't fair, it isn't right |
|
I've wished on a million or billion bright stars |
|
Prayed like the devil with all of my might |
|
And somebody said, "What's really trueAll of this stuff is different I knowBut what is in common has always been you" |
|
I'm learning to see, the heavens are so starry |
|
If I'm not too proud |
|
I'll learn to say |
|
I'm sorryAnd you'd think by now |
|
I'd figured out the pattern |
