I never thought that what I said 
could have so many meanings 
to her one voice is a harmony 
I try to say I care but no, 
it sounds like I don't mean it 
she thinks I'm a parody

And when she won't speak to me she doesn't tell me why 
I'm supposed to know what I've done wrong and make it right 

I think she's made of glass 
she breaks with the lightest touch 
and cuts me when I try to put her back together 
I twist myself to the best I can be 
but I never do enough 
I always do too much 

and when she tells me to leave all she wants is for me to stay 
and when she wants me to stay it's dangerous to leave 

when she stares at me I go down 
when that stare hits me I'm wrapped around 
when she stares I know it won't take long before I crawl 

The moments of hope are the moments of [bad word]  
with weapons laid aside 
and all is peace and beauty 
I could go on like that forever 
but the call was never mine 
she wins I'm the loser

she hears my words like they?re doublecross-designed 
and every time she breaks she gets that cold and piercing eye 

when she stares at me I go down 
when that stare hits me I?m wrapped around 
when she stares I know it won?t be long before I crawl 

she's freaking out 
I need a break 
anything at all
anything at all

I need something to calm her down 
anything at all 
anything at all
anything at all

it's been like this for all my life 
everywhere I go I tend to cause confusion 
I go for peace but end up with strife 
the belief in a clear statement 
is a painful illusion 

everywhere I stay there's someone asking me to leave 
and every time I leave there's someone asking me to stay 
and everywhere someone stares and then again 

when she stares at me I go down 
when that stare hits me I'm wrapped around 
when she stares I know it won't be long before I crawl
