Lyrics:
i am letting the telephone ring
cause i don't want to know why
i don't want to hear you explain
i don't want to hear you cry
i have written so much about you
so much i though i knew
words like water used to flow
now what can i possibly have to say
she is someone i don't even know
and all the things that you've given to me
i see now were simply reparations
they were gifts of your guilt
they were my preparation
i know i should be mature
keep my feet on the floor
but for some reason i just
don't want them anymore
i know this shouldn't be important
compared to you and i
but i can still hear my questions
and i can still hear you lie
now vicariously i have her in me
i want to peel off my skin
let the water wash in
you always said that i was hiding
that i was hiding from you
but you are capable of things
that i could not do
remember how you pretended
pretended to touch me
i remember how i couldn't bring myself
to believe
i remember wondering what was wrong
what was wrong- how could i be so naive
