Fights…

"Words"

Lyrics: Darren Hayes

 

Gimme a taste of what's to come Give me a medicine Teach me a lesson, maybe I deserve to know Cut me down to size and paralyze me With the contents of your pretty little head Gimme somewhere else to go Give me one thing Tell me something I don't really need to know I am so afraid of breaking what we made It is delicate and lovely But it's a weight above me And your words are like weapons But you'll keep them inside They cut like a knife And you keep it together Those feelings inside There's nowhere to hide but away from me And I just wanna listen to your words I'd like to step into your world Show me a secret I promise to keep it safe and sheltered from the storm I would cross the great divide that keeps me swimming Treading water from your shore Now I wanna coax you from your hell Into an alley, the hidden valley Where the truth can surely spill I wanna take the weight that drags you to the ground Spare this treasure that I found But your words are like weapons But you'll keep them inside They cut like a knife And you keep it together Those feelings inside There's nowhere to hide but away from me And I just wanna listen...

There's a lock, someone's stolen the key They took it away from me Somewhere that noone can read ya I see a bible I see a bible in your eyes All those codes and hidden meanings Full of metaphor and something for the faithless in me But your words are like weapons But you'll keep them inside They cut like a knife And you keep it together Those feelings inside There's nowhere to hide And your words are like weapons But you'll keep them inside They cut like a knife And you keep it together Those feelings inside There's nowhere to hide but away from me And I just wanna listen to your words

So simple and yet so delicately describe our situation.  Whenever we get into a tense situation, I end up freezing up and you spiraling down the emotion hell.  I always think that keeping the silence will make the situation dissipate faster…yet every time it’s the direct opposite.  I desperately try to find something to say yet it draws a blank.  I want to flee from the frustration.  And I do…by creating a wall of silence.  I’m so sorry for hurting you.  I know you sincerely want to know what’s on my mind.  I’m a fool for trying not to let you into my mind.  I find myself getting caught in my little mind games.  I always have a way of predicting what other people will say according to the situation and how I behave.  I say I trust you but I find that I don’t completely do.  Or else I would simply tell you what’s on my mind.  I’m a coward…I’m scared that by saying what’s on my mind, you’ll no longer see me as desirable.
