Special Ones
Isn't it funny how you never really screamed at my face,
but your anger's so unspoken and unchannelled,
permeates my essence to the point where I don't want to see you, hear you, be anywhere near you.
You probably think I'm threatened by you, but your illusionary power doesn't threaten me.
Actually I think it's kind of funny that you create
an illusion that is a mirror.
I don't appreciate you and I know that that surprises you.
I suppose you see that those who follow their heart always win,
those with integrity have won the match before it's begun
So rather than being kicked around,
I'm going to kick you to the curb.
So rather than being pushed around,
I'm going to push you away first.
So rather than trying to protect you,
I'm going to cover my bases first.
So rather than trying to open my heart,
I'm going to lock it with a key.
So that only the special ones can ever get through to me
Some can see beyond the barrier of threshold,
whereas others can't see beyond their sculptured mold.
You could offer me nothing,
you could offer me nothing that I need
Do you think I'm asking too much?
A kind of respect and trust that shouldn't even be questioned,
how can I open my heart with dishonesty sitting next to me?
I've honored your honor to the point of embarrassment,
but innocence in the hands of the guilt-free is kicked to,
is kicked to the curb.
I was ashamed of my innocence,
I was ashamed of my innocence but now with clarity I see that your bullshit is just not worthy of me
So rather than being kicked around,
I'm going to kick you to the curb.
So rather than being pushed around,
I'm going to push you away first.
So rather than trying to protect you,
I'm going to cover my bases first.
So rather than trying to open my heart,
I'm going to lock it with a key.
So that only the special ones can ever get through to me.
I don't want to be angry...
I don't want to be angry...
I don't want to be angry...
I don't want to be angry, angry, angry...
This is not worthy of me and now with clarity,
I see that I can walk away, I can walk away
So rather than being kicked around,
I'm going to kick you to the curb.
So rather than being pushed around,
I'm going to push you away first.
So rather than trying to protect you,
I'm going to cover my bases first.
So rather than trying to open my heart,
I'm going to lock it with a key.
