You Do This To Me

by Shelby G.   Jun 2, 2005


Ball up your fist
And clench those teeth
Yeah, I can't sustain the anger
I'll just
I'll just let it go
I guess you could say
I'm slipping away
Not on solid ground
Not on anything for that matter
I can see right through you
Right through that smile

Well this tiny little glow
Happened to catch my eye
It hummed like a glass harmonica
I swear that I thought I -
Thoughts aren't important
Not in my world, they aren't
That little voice in my head
I muted it

I'm losing trust
Thought I might lie
But it doesn't bother me
So don't ask why
Now
I see in your eyes
You have a question
But I can't asnwer it
And I don't want to
Because I don't fit into this world
Your world, that is

I saw the tiniest little light
With the tiniest little switch
The room was so damn bright
But, you know
Blinded by a light
Shining in my eyes
Sometimes
I forget I'm alive
Barely moving
How do I survive
Nothing really matters anymore
None of this will sit
Burning in a fire
And I don't give a shit
Just f.ucking around
No real concerns
Drifting into the unfound
were I'll again burn

He takes my hand
He hold me high
He's on demand
For no more lies
He makes me feel
Like I'm alive
I'm glad he's here
Now I'll survive
He takes me out
He hold my hand
Its turning out
Just as I'd planned
