[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
