Agonizing over every word I want to say
Controlled by fears and consequences of feelings I betray
flinch because I wonder when
elbowed in the head again
minding my own business on the couch
and I`m ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
Forgetful, regretful, I`m feeling your head full of doubts
"why do you like me?"
but I like to complain my low threshold for pain doesn`t help
darling get off my knee
flinch because I wonder when
poked me in the eye again
minding my own business on the couch
and I`m ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
Well it doesn`t bother me quite as much as you think
I`m just extra sensitive after my second drink
and there`s nothing I can do because I`m constantly annoyed
these heavy conversations, abrasions I avoid
flinch because I wonder when
kicked me in the shin again
minding my own business on the couch
and I`m ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
