It Took Me By Surprise
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 seeit is my fault
