Torn
You don't know what I feel
You don't know what I think
No one does
Everything is swept under a rug
Yet floats through the air
You don't think I remember?
Well, how could I forget?
If your not talking about it
Someone else is
You pull me one way
For me to be pulled again
Back and forth like its a game of tug-a-war
I know what your thinking
Who cares about you?
About your opinion
Your thoughts
You choose to let my word slide
You think I agree with you
Your not wrong
But your also not right
I love you all can't you see?
By choosing a side
My love is never full
It was all great
Then it was shattered
Now it is changing
Again and again
What sucks is what I can't do
I can't make it all better
This occupies my thoughts
To no end at night
I think about life and where I am today
Without you
By now I'd have withered away
So now you know how I feel
And you know what I think
But I know that don't mean a single thing.
