Smothered

You ask me what’s wrong
then you tell me not to worry
and u never seem to notice
when my eyes get wet and blurry

you ask me what’s a matter
and then you tell me just to smile
you ask me why I can’t
just be happy once in awhile

and I don’t know what to tell you
because I don’t know what to say
but every day I wake up lonely
and everyday I’m not okay

And you ask me if I’m angry
or if you’ve done something wrong
and I try to tell you it’s not really you
but the words come out all wrong

and you’re angry and i’m angry
and we’re both oh so confused
and i feel misunderstood and attacked
and you feel left out and used

and you’re wondering if I’ll make it
past this brick wall i’ve built between
the girl you met and thought you loved
and this new girl you’ve never seen

you’re trying to understand but you can’t
because you haven’t been to the places I’ve been
and i can’t explain it to you because i don’t know myself
how to explain the things I’ve seen

and you want me to tell you my problems
and when you hold me close I melt
but I’ll never make you happy because
I don’t even know them myself.
