All I want to do is good...

But at every turn I take

It seems its always a mistake

Even when I'm right

it seems I'm wrong

The words I use never come out straight

I talk in circles and encryptions

That no one understands

Not even me.

I can't tell you how I feel

Not because its not real

But the reason is,

You wouldn't understand

Because I don't understand

why my head is in my hands

I don't know how to say,

How I feel,

I don't know how to portray

With words

Whats in my heart

Whats in my mind

You can search

But I don't know what you'll find

We are really in a bind

Blaming ourselves for the others pain

Are we both blind

Well

Its not you

Its purely me in my problem

Though you'll find a way to blame yourself

No matter what I do, I blame myself

For not helping, or doing more

When I've done all I can

If I'm not helping I am hurting

You have said this yourself

What would you say to me if I said it back

It wouldn't matter now

Because it wouldn't be applied

I can say to you,

Then you turn around and say to me

But the both of us are stuck in a circle

and we are going round and round or so it seems

and we both ar blind to ourselves

we only see the bad

we don't see all we have

we don't take our own advice
