Away from you
Here I thought we were doing so well
Come to find out
You feel like hell
You tell me I don't communicate
But when I try you just shut down
I don't care
I don't need you
I'd rather be alone
I can hear the refrain in my head
There's no need to repeat it again
You tell me my appeal is my aloofness
Yet its the thing that drives you away
You tell me I'm not romantic
That I don't show you you are loved
I pick you flowers
I write you stuff
I flirt with you til I'm blue in the face
Tell me where I've gone wrong
You tell me I can't relate
So how bout now I try to play
The blame game you do so well
You have rules I can't contemplate
Never the same
Not even close
It seems to me you let me be
Until somehow I rub you wrong
So here's the thing
I may lack the words to attack
But feel free to watch my back
As it walks away from you
Come to find out
You feel like hell
You tell me I don't communicate
But when I try you just shut down
I don't care
I don't need you
I'd rather be alone
I can hear the refrain in my head
There's no need to repeat it again
You tell me my appeal is my aloofness
Yet its the thing that drives you away
You tell me I'm not romantic
That I don't show you you are loved
I pick you flowers
I write you stuff
I flirt with you til I'm blue in the face
Tell me where I've gone wrong
You tell me I can't relate
So how bout now I try to play
The blame game you do so well
You have rules I can't contemplate
Never the same
Not even close
It seems to me you let me be
Until somehow I rub you wrong
So here's the thing
I may lack the words to attack
But feel free to watch my back
As it walks away from you
