Not Surprised
October 10, 2010
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
I can’t say I’m surprised
You're leaving.
I'm not
I love you.
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
I'm not surprised you can’t love
Me now
I’m not
I’ll miss you.
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
I’m not surprised I brought
You down
I’m not
I live in hell.
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
I can’t say I’m surprised you’re
Dead tonight
I’m not
I killed you.
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
I’m not surprised you don’t trust me
That you think I don’t care
I’m not
I don’t care.
I try so hard…
With excuses
I work to avoid…
With ignorance
