Lyrics
You can fake it for a while Bite your tongue and smile Like every mother does her ugly child But it starts the leaking out Like spittle from a cloud Amassed resentment pelting ounce and pound You entertaining any doubt 'Cause you had to know that I was fond of you Fond of Y-O-U Though I knew you masked your disdain I can see the change was just too hard for us Hard for us You always had to hold the reigns But where I'm headed, you just don't know the way So affections fade away Or do adults just learn to play The most ridiculous, repulsive games? All our favorite ruddy sons And their double-barreled guns You'd better hurry rabbit, run, run, run 'Cause mincing you is fun And there's a lot of hungry hatters in this world Set on taking it over But brittle, thorny stems They break before they bend And neither one of us is one of them And the tears will never mend 'Cause you had it in for me so long ago Boy, I still don't know I don't know why and I don't care Well, hardly anymore If you'd only seen yourself hating me Hating me When I've been so much more than fair But then you'd have to lay those feelings bare One thing I know has still got you scared Yeah, all that cold ire And never once aired on a dare You had to know that I was fond of you Fond of Y-O-U So I took your licks at the time And a change like that is just so hard to do Hard to do Don't let it whip-crack your life And I'll bow out from the fight Those old pious sisters were right The worst part is over Now get back on that horse and ride
