The Only Thing I Didn't Want To Do

Here I go again

Pent up anger and broken ties

I never meant to cross the median lines



Here I cry again

Leaving the thoughts and hurt feelings behind

I never meant to leave you feeling angry



I know what I need to change

I know what I have to do

To make everything better

To make it all work

I have to be a lil more like you



Losing tempers again

Words being added to hurt feelings and anger

When it was all just softness in my voice



Telephone doesn't ring again

The phone line disconnected

No on told me how to get my love through to you



I know what I need to change

I have it all here waiting to be put together

I need more strength

I need more help

I need a little more of anything to make it through



I cried last night

Along with my prayers for a better life

A better life for you

I hit the pillow

I lied awake

I slept in my tears for you



Why can't I make things right?

Why does every thing I say

Just turn into another fight?



I'll say that I am sorry

A million times and I'll mean it so true

But I am not really sure how to get my love through to you



I hurt you, hurt you, hurt you, I hurt you....

I wanna scream, I'll ask God why I am here

When everything I do turns into nothing in the end



I don't know

I cannot comprehend

I cannot mend

I cannot seem to make it right with you

Help me out

I am on my knees, I cannot go on

Weeping and weeping, sobes of anger at myself



Let me inside

Let me know I am loved

Lift me up

Teach me how to never do...



The only thing I didn't want to do...

Is to hurt you

I cannot do nothing at all

I fail and fail until it is time to fall...

I cannot get up at all

Planted here, with broken wings

Mend me and end this silence tonight

Author's Notes/Comments: 

You were right, and I am sorry, it dying here will ease your pain, then please kill me tonight.  I'll do anything to make it right again...anything. (I wrote this before ya left..or wanted to)
