Stimulus-Response Pattern

Hey now can you call me maybe
I know I'm a little crazy
But I think you are as well
You hide the cracks but I can tell
I write you this because I need to
Fight with this attachment issue
Feeling like I'm in a cell
Held prisoner to myself
I know I can't make things better
So I sit and write this letter
Hoping that your listening
My fingers they are blistering
From work that comes every which way
I hate my life, I hate this day
I just want to be myself
Fuck everyone, there's nothing else

I think of fire as in connection with emotions
Because when you become stirred up
When your emotions control your actions
It affects not only yourself but the people around you
Psychologists find that control of emotions can be gained by understanding the stimulus-response pattern

Smoking away
All the tears
Smoking away
All the fears
Smoking away
All the tears
Smoking away
All my fears

Watched you leave, it terrified me (oh)
Not the same, I'm scared you'll find me (I can't see you)
Crying on the bathroom floor (I think we're through)
Smoking while I am writing more (It can't be true)
Sappy lyrics to a song (oh)
Or messages to send along (I can't hear you)
A letter you'll receive today (I think we're through)
You better read it all the way (I know it's true)
It speaks of my attachment issues (oh)
And of why I can't be with you (I can't touch you)
There so much you never knew (I think we're through)
It had to be that way, it's true (By god it's true)
If you knew my real opinions (oh)
And my past experiences (I can't kiss you)
Then you would really see (I think it through)
I'm half the man I appear to be (I don't love you)

I can't
Love you
Anymore
I'd love
To see you
But I'm sad far more
