It's Only Me

from Dogged by Slender Gems

lyrics

what you take from me i can never tell lead my eyes to paradise or send me back to hell penetrate my mind with elation so remiss we both suppress exposure at it's best but it's always hit or miss ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhh it's only me but soon you will see how i came to be this way i brought this upon myself and only i can worry the shades that lie behind your eyes tell a different story i worry oh wow how you take me and you break me in some strange slice of time where you reign as queen i am just some specter of so many strange unspoken things there you lie asleep with that one eye open wide i gaze into that void and feel the shame you hold inside ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh it's only me but soon you will see how i came to be this way i brought this upon myself and only i can worry the shades that lie behind your eyes tell a different story i worry oh wow how you take me and you break me to a million fuckin pieces it's so hard to put myself together my inside it freezes your expression leaves me speechless and for no apparent reason only i'm so strange and our exchange of shame will it keep us even? if you still see me eye to eye there's still some candor in these lies enough to be just who we want to be and see what we're allowed to see but the lives we lived allowed no sacred space and i saw the marks upon your face from and expressive hand it made him feel like such a man you're making plans to see the world while you're a young and able girl the time will come you'll save the money and make your way across the country but i brought this upon myself and only i can worry the shades that lie behind your eyes tell a different story i worry oh wow how you take me and you break me
