I don't understand

by Miss Lovely   Oct 12, 2005


My eyes are blood-shot, my eyes are red.
There's a little voice inside my head.
The voice is harsh and hard to hear.
But the words I'll keep...forever dear.
My eyes are blood-shot from lack of sleep.
My eyes are red from seeing things that shouldn't be seen...
My vision is blurred.
Dear God...please help me...I'm so scared.
I'm losing control.
I'm losing my cool.
My face is expressionless.
I don't know what to do.
My heart is telling me to stay strong.
But my brain is telling me to forget you.
My hair is a mess.
I can't take all the stress.
All the stress that you're passing to me...isn't something I want to keep.
So I sit here...avoiding your stare.
Looking around, others give me a cold glare.
My body is all tense.
I've misplaced my defense.
I don't understand where all these feelings came from.
It feels unreal, I'm feeling a little numb.
Have you ever felt so alone, and nothing makes sense? Well that's how I feel right now. I feel like I'm facing everything by myself with nothing but tears and a fake smile!
I don't understand why I feel like this.
No move you make will I dare miss.
My eyes are all blood-shot, my eyes are all red.
Take me home so I may rest in my bed.
The voice is now screaming to me.
Its telling me to leave imediatly.
Its telling me that sometimes all you can do is walk away.
Walk away, hide your tears, and pretend you're okay.
Its not that I don't love you.
Its not that I don't care.
Its that when I look in your eyes,
I can see that you don't want me there.
So even though it kills my heart
to have to let you be.
I got to do what's right for you..
and forget what's right for me.
My eyes are blood-shot, my eyes red.
Thoughts are swarming through my head.
...you just don't understand....
