Cannot stand the noise from you anymore
Why don't you just leave before I lose my head?
Grit my teeth together, intensity in my eyes
About to lose my mind, starting to see red
Cannot help but wonder why you do this to me
Do you not want me to feel my love for you?
You intentionally push me to the edge
Forcing me to say things that I don't want to
The last thing on my mind was to hurt you
Never a good idea to test my patience
Pushing my buttons was a foolish game
Now I'm screaming at you, this makes no sense
Going overboard, didn't want to make you cry
Didn't ask for this, was lost in my own mind
Now I feel guilty. Was that your plan after all?
Bags packed, gone on a trip...sanity I hope I find
Come close to me, you know I love you still
Wiping the tears from your face, It will be ok
Kissing your forehead, I am so sorry dear
Holding you close, forgiveness is what I pray
