I would react badly to the
Slightest hint of hesitance
He'd bend awkwardly
To suit my mood
No word from his defense
I'd cry knowing how my tears
Felt like acid burning
Through his skin
Pushed every little button
But the right one that
Would let me in
Now he's afraid of me
He's afraid of me
It took me by surprise
The hatred in his eyes
I've pushed this man as
Far as he could go
But he lacked the words
To let me know
He acted out now I
Can see it is my fault
I made changes
That went unnoticed
Sang songs for deaf ears
He mistook my silence
For punishment as it
Had been all these years
I'd cry knowingly how
My tears felt like acid
Burning through his skin
Now he's afraid of me
He's afraid of me
It took me by surprise
The hatred in his eyes
I've pushed this man
As far as he could go
But he lacked the words
To let me know
He acted out now I can
It took me by surprise
The hatred in his eyes
I've pushed this man
As far as he could go
But he lacked the words
To let me know
He acted out now
I can see it is my fault
