Mean


I can't shake this feeling How angry you make me You don't even try But your happiness and my not-so-happiness right now Just adds to my frustration of how happy I really want to be And you started off making me feel that way Making me feel complete We both needed each other And even when you felt you needed me more You don't understand how fucked up I am I need something Something to take me away Something to help me start new That something was you But lately you can't even make me feel different I'm stuck feeling angry Feeling like no one gets me I just want to be alone Yet you remind me every morning that I can't be alone...anymore I have you And though having you and keeping you is my priority It's times like this I have to hide how bad I wanna runaway And just be with me I wanna fix this Readjust my attitude So I can stop being so mean to you and start being nice You deserve a solid woman One with her shit together And though you believe that woman is me God knows, I be looking in the mirror Like, Damn why does he put up with me? How can somebody so nice, be with somebody so mean?
