i'm feelin' low on energy
at first you said i do but now it's i did
said together we should live
now you're mad with time we spend
used to be jealous of my friends an' fill my weekends
but now you're off for pastimes
playin' games with my mind
you're layin' the blame in my lap
but delayin' layin' in our bed
i meant what i said when you weren't listenin'
an' i'm not sayin' it again
i'm comin' to the end of my silent partnerin'
or bargainin' for affection
i gain satisfaction from regulation
your mind is made on obeyin' opinions
from acquaintances who's situation suggest loneliness
i try to leave but you protest
you want out but you keep me in
patience runs thin as you go through your motions
as my soul leaves its apartment
tear stains an' fear gains
with increases in the pain
could someone turn the music down?
