The Apartment

What have you been up to?

That warrants not letting me know?

Tell me. Why Should I believe you?

I've been worried for hours

When all you had to do was call.

Exactly why is this so hard?



Oh I've crossed this road before,

And while familiar is helpful....

It's getting old.



If there's a way to stay in control,

Someone let me know.

Because I cant even waste breath

unless my other half knows

And its madness that everybody

Learns to live with day by day with what to show?



And I think I'm better off alone



Well I remember a time when

It didn't matter where I go.

How I loved to have that freedom.

And it's not like I'm asking

For this to happen all the time.

Exactly why is this so hard?



by now I'm sure you know,

I get a little resentful

When I watch as all my options fly

one way straight to the floor

Oh and I know all of this has gone way to far.

Whoa!



If there's a way to stay in control,

Someone let me know.

Because I cant even waste breath

unless my other half knows

And its madness that everybody

Learns to live with day by day with what to show?



And I think I'm better off alone



We all amount to nothing on our own

That's how it goes.

Don't forget what you're told,

It's just a constant struggle back and forth it goes.



If there's a way to stay in control,

Someone let me know.

Because I cant even waste breath

unless my other half knows

And its madness that everybody

Learns to live with day by day with what to show?



Learn to live day by day with what.....

To show for all the places I've been,

For all the money I've spent,

To show for people that I could have

met but had to stay in?

I'm not opposing this, no

I dont preach abstinence

I just think that once and again,

We need to be alone.
