It Took Me By Surprise
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
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
