Another Lonely Night

You see the world in black in white Ignoring all the grey You hear the words you want to hear Not really hearing what we say. In truth I think you know The way you act is out of line The way you fill her heart with things But have another thing in mind. A woman's heart's an entity You'll never understand. You vomit out the sweetest words But you'll never be a man. If you can't see the wrong in this If you really think you're right, You'll find the in the long run Your life is just another lonely night. Why can't you lie beside her, And take her by the hand? Instead you work your silver tongue, And get just what you planned. You wonder why she cries so much. You wonder why she yells, But you hypnotize her flowing heart, With all your tricks and spells. A woman's heart's an entity You'll never understand. You vomit out the sweetest words But you'll never be a man. If you can't see the wrong in this If you really think you're right, You'll find the in the long run Your life is just another lonely night. That morning when you wake up, Balding from your age, You wish you'd never said those things, And could turn back the page. Your life will be so empty, Perhaps you'll comprehend. You're sacrificing so much more Than just another friend. A woman's heart's an entity You'll never understand. You vomit out the sweetest words But you'll never be a man. If you can't see the wrong in this If you really think you're right, You'll find the in the long run Your life is just another lonely night
