Say Something Wonderful

So much to talk about, too little time on my own,
So much to think about, too little reason to say,
There’s so much that I feel, so much that’s there to ignore,
Acquaintance and history. Mistakes that were made and let go,
You always let me down and I always get you wrong
We’re too busy tearing ourselves apart
To see what we had all along
To say something wonderful,
I need something beautiful now,
I’m feeling so wasted and worthless for you.
The praise and the poetry, the nails that I hooked through your skin,
The love and the tragedy, the time put in no one can steel,
Too far to walk alone, too far to carry a load,
To hear myself think again,
Thinking so much that I drink myself away,
Away from the cynics I see.
You always let me down and I always miss your point,
We’re too busy tearing ourselves apart,
To see what we had in our hands.
So say something wonderful
I need something beautiful now,
I’m feeling so wasted and worthless,
Banging my head on the wall,
Thinking the worst of it all,
Self-pity owns me once more,
Trying to escape from it all.
Say something now.
I need something now.
I think the storms' over now,
I think that it’s safe to come out,
I think that I need you now.
