What is a misery that cannot be seen, heard, or explained
What is a misery far too painful for human expression
What is a misery that drives to the ends of the earth everyday
What is a misery that immobilizes indefinitely
What is a misery that surges beyond words or gestures, beyond explanation or comprehension
What is a misery at all, in fact
What is a misery but a misery?

Nothing else seems to thrill me like the sight of you
But nothing seems to hurt me like the loss of you
Nothing excites me like the feeling you bring my heart
Nothing destroys me like the thinking you bring my head

Nothing else can take me over like you
But nothing can shoot me downward like you
What am I supposed to do about that?
What am I supposed to say to you now?

You know me, possibly
You ignore me, maybe
You bring out something good in me
You bring out my weak side as well

Something about you is such a home to me
But around you  I just cannot be at ease
Something about you is so right for me
But this whole situation seems so wrong…

I thought we were friends
I thought you were true
I thought you’d understand me
I thought you’d listen to me
I thought so wrong
Because you’re a liar

You told me you were fine
So I suppose you lied
You told me you did care
Then you were never there
And now I know better than ever
All you really are is a liar

I shared my mind with you
You dumped it, then flew

I showed you my entire soul
You showed your heart to be full
And now I know better than ever
All you really are is a liar

I wanted a real bond and yoke
You wanted a dirtier joke
I offered trust and support for you
Thinking you deserved it through and through
And now I know better than ever
All you really are is a liar
