My Radio
Too many times and too many words
reveal the answers in my lies,
I swore I'd never hurt again until I
let you see how much I cared,
just another time when I failed to see
the actions in my thoughts-
the indifference that shattered
like a shell I hadn't known before,
that I hadn't known I wore,
yet listen here, listen if you
think it's you I'm mourning for
you haven't known me long.
There is another who scarred me long before,
new scars on old wounds only numb
what wasn't raw,
You can't hurt me child
Too many times and too many love songs
they don't sound like they did before,
my soul aching now I know I wasn't wrong
This flesh crawls, this mind bends
around the river bends and I don't
know what empty fields it's looking for,
some aloneness I know we crave.
Listen here child there is nothing
you are breaking that isn't broken but
with you I thought I could forget
You said I love you,
said it sweetly but made me wonder
far too often
Too much anger,
too much anger,
I love you,
Don't you mean I want you different?
Change for me?
Too many love songs,
I think I've heard it all so I stood up and
reached out to switch my radio off.
