Again, and Again

The doubt and anger are here again No surprise, my new friend Believed I could keep it all away Now it’s about to steal me away Come steal me away. Again, and again Why can’t I change the parts I hate? Stupid, lying beautiful face Hearts are craters, deep as wells Fill them up and hold on well Sand and mud, the liquid seeps Dirty tears and sorrows creep Creep in to swallow me. Again, and again Why can’t I change the parts I hate? Stupid, lying beautiful face Told you, I told you. Remember I did? This time it was raw, nothing I hid Unacceptable loathing and regret Nothing to explain, at least not yet You will see though. Again, and again Why can’t I change the parts I hate? Stupid, lying beautiful face Consuming distraction, love that I know It’s dying already with no place to go You won’t agree and you won’t see It will never be enough for me You will hate me so. Again, and again Why can’t I change the parts that I hate? Stupid, lying beautiful face Let me go, for I am already gone I’m sorry to make you believe this long Hopeless rage, directed at you Walls constructed to block the view But you will still want me. Again, and again. I can’t change the parts I hate, and I’ll never be happy again. Again
