We are standing on the threshold Of a decent conversation When I can hear the door slam
I know the face you`re making And I really want to talk to you I really, really wanted to But once you get your mind made up There is no getting through to you
For a while it was touching For a while it was challenging Before it became typical And now it really isn`t interesting To see a grown man cry To see a grown man cry
I`m lying on the sofa and the radio is blaring And I`m scanning through the stations as the boys declare their feelings But it doesn`t feel like feelings It feels like they`re pretending It`s like they just want blowjobs And they know these songs will get them
And I really want to talk to you I really, really wanted to But i have learned my lesson now And you’re not the one I`m turning to
And for a while it was touching For a while it was challenging Before it got habitual And now it really isn`t interesting To see a grown man cry To see a grown man cry
I was the first to warn you I lay myself before you I was the first to warn you I put myself before you
We are standing on the corner And you`re throwing down the gauntlet It is not a life decision We just need to pick a restaurant
After all this, I should know you Well enough not to get into it I should learn, but I`m an idiot You only want an argument
And for a while it was touching It was almost even comforting Before it became typical And now it really is not interesting To see a grown man cry To see a grown man cry To see a grown man throw a temper fit To see a grown man cross his arms And sit as if the whole wide world would end If he was not a part of it But at the same time with no confidence Never realizing the consequence he`s having On the ones he loves Because he thinks he makes no difference
We are standing on the threshold Of a decent conversation When I can hear the door slam I know the face you`re making And I really want to talk to you I really, really wanted to But this time, I am giving up I am simply giving up on you
