[ti:His Pleasure Is My Pain]
[00:16.52] A man stands in the doorway like a small child
[00:21.12] Angry fists
[00:23.47] She lies on her bed her head buried in her pillow
[00:29.08] And she stares at the moon
[00:32.58] He speaks to her all the words shes heard too many times before
[00:39.90] And pretty soon she just let's his voice fade away
[00:45.09] And she thinks...
[00:47.89] This was a gradual steel frost
[00:50.44] That started with cold feet
[00:52.49] And ended with numb hearts
[00:55.69] This was once satisfying sex but now no longer is
[01:03.20] It was once filled with the possibilities of new china or old stone
[01:10.49] But now it's exagerated and waterlogged no longer what these
[01:14.29] Hands had
[01:15.04] Intended and still i cry in my sleep
[01:20.44] He always said i was too sensitive,
[01:23.94] But i say
[01:26.89] At least i never meant to make him cry.
[01:33.76] At least i never meant to make him hurt that way
[01:39.62] Nooo i never meant to make him cry
[01:47.12] Never meant to make him hurt that way
[01:54.87] Yes it's true, i'm too senstive
[02:02.57] But he takes pleasure in my pain.
[02:10.12] Yes it's true, i'm too senstive
[02:16.62] But he takes pleasure in my pain.
[02:25.03] And the unheard hours they fly by
[02:28.68] She goes to the window
[02:32.83] She puts on a nightgown and brushes her hair
[02:40.38] He's already asleep
[02:43.58] By the time she
[02:44.78] Goes and lays herself back down.
[02:47.38] She thinks
[02:48.23] My god, what am i doing hear?
[02:56.01] My bones have grown tired of his hunger, of his gray eyes,
[03:04.31] And i feel if i were to stay one more night here i'd die or explode
[03:08.51] Or worse yet just fade away.
[03:12.66] There have been days so dark that i felt like august
[03:15.11] And that i soon too would turn to fall.
[03:19.01] He always said i was too sensitive that if i cared so much
[03:23.68] The world could kill me that way.
[03:26.53] I wonder if he's only half alive or if he's simply always been this
[03:30.43] Inarticulate,
[03:32.22] Cause i say
[03:42.29] at least I never meant to make him hurt that way
[03:48.15] no, I never meant to make him cry
[03:55.60] I never meant to make him hurt that way
[04:03.45] yes it's true, I'm too sensitive but
[04:11.16] he takes pleasure in my pain
[04:18.82] yes it's true, I'm too sensitive but
[04:26.52] he takes pleasure in my pain
[04:33.62] she gets out of bed and looks at her feet as though they were the wings for her freedom
[04:41.66] she gets up and goes to the drawer
[04:49.05] it's a moment in which anything can happen
[04:52.20] instead she gets out some clothing, puts them in a bag
[04:55.91] and leaves him sleeping while she heads for the door
