You know what you do to me
Now that you got through to me
I used to love to be alone...
But now that you've cracked my shell
Life is a living Hell
A sweet thing is turning to stone
Why can't you feel what I need you to feel?
Why can't you see what I need you to see?
Why can't you be what I need you to be?
You painted a picture of
Perfect undying love
I fell for it head over heels...
But now that you're showing through
I know that it wasn't true
I flick at the paint as it peels
Why can't you feel what I need you to feel?
Why can't you see what I need you to see?
Why can't you be what I need you to be?
I need consistency
Why did you change on me?
What you made me believe
Was an illusive thing!
You gave me entire days
Loving me many ways
I thought you'd never leave me alone...
But now that you "have no time"
And that loving isn't mine
A sweet thing is turning to stone
Why can't you feel what I need you to feel?
Why can't you see what I need you to see?
Why can't you be what I need you to be?
Why can't you feel what I need you to feel?
Why can't you see what I need you to see?
And why can't you be what I need you to be?
