I was tired of being put right down
by myself for not being what you
thought you had found
pulled hard in two directions by a
desire to learn
and my old affections
I tried to share my world with you
you could not seem to tolerate
the people I had grown to love.
they shrank under your scrutiny,
became the ones you'd hate.
Everything, everything
with you and me had to be so political
Everything, everything
with you and me had to be so political
I was feeling underwhelmed
about hanging around with you and
feeling over cautious
every word, every look,
every little sign, every little phrase
put me deeper in your doghouse
you'd let me out to run across your world
i ran into a wall, you told me i built it then
you'd reel me in, ream me out, pick me up
push me out again
-and then repeat it
why did everything, everything
with you and me have to be so political?
everything, everything
with you and me had to be so political
everything, everything
with you and me was
too busy tripping on my tongue
to try and stand my ground
and i can still see myself crying in your lap
asking you are you happy with the man you have found?
i'm grateful for what you did for me
i can see things now i never would have seen
but today i thought about what could have been
but could never be for you and me
because everything, everything
wtih you and me had to be so political
everything, everything
wtih you and me had to be so political
everything, everything
everything, everything
everything, everything
everything, everything
everything was so
was so so political
everything was so
i'm so so political
everything was so
ha ha ha ha ha ha-oh
everything was so
was so so political
everything was so...
everything was so...
I'll format the song so it looks nice rather than half-typed properly and half-not later.
I am not looking forward to the next few days. In fact, they'll be quite shitty. Something related to death occurs tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday. Talk about reminders of mortality. I would appreciate it if you cut me some slack for any oddness or snappiness, etc. on my part.
GOODNIGHT.
