about
Everybody's had an argument with their nearest and dearest right ? This song maps my path from confusion through annoyance to putting things back together again.
lyrics
I don't know who you are,
Or where you're going.
I don't know what you say.
But you make it alright.
I don't know who you are child,
But I left a message saying,
"Please call me".
I've spent this night alone thinking,
What could I have done wrong,
To warrant this face ?
Have I drifted on oblivious and uncaring,
With a pillow wrapped around my head ?
I do not cater to this.
I do not think that I am this unfeeling.
And I do not like that you are boiling underneath,
While your countenance is clear.
I look around and feel the atmosphere,
And something is lost in me.
This scene boils within me,
A rapid breath does not conceal my angel vice.
I couldn't bear to lose you,
Wouldn't dare to hurt you,
But you're lost inside yourself.
You're off on waves of dismay,
Bouncing off walls you've become,
The devilette I fear.
Or where you're going.
I don't know what you say.
But you make it alright.
I don't know who you are child,
But I left a message saying,
"Please call me".
I've spent this night alone thinking,
What could I have done wrong,
To warrant this face ?
Have I drifted on oblivious and uncaring,
With a pillow wrapped around my head ?
I do not cater to this.
I do not think that I am this unfeeling.
And I do not like that you are boiling underneath,
While your countenance is clear.
I look around and feel the atmosphere,
And something is lost in me.
This scene boils within me,
A rapid breath does not conceal my angel vice.
I couldn't bear to lose you,
Wouldn't dare to hurt you,
But you're lost inside yourself.
You're off on waves of dismay,
Bouncing off walls you've become,
The devilette I fear.
