A request So simple and yet It's so hard to expect Anything more than what I've asked You can fool me for a while Longer but no longer Than I let you have the best of me for the worst of reasons I can humor one more chance In exchange for something true You create the circumstance But don't take me for a fool There's only so long I can hold my breath And I'm not convinced
That there's no other out but the other I shudder to think about And I'd like to think That this time is less forgettable than you've decided No other thoughts frequent my mind Quite as troubling as this peace that I could not find Well I hope you got what you came here for Another trophy on your shelf I could blame you for this misery But I brought it on myself
