I didn't ask much of you
I only asked of you one thing
To let me tell you my story
And in return you do nothing

I wrote it out six pages
Every word true
Then I put it in an envelope
And handed it to you

I told you what you mean to me
I told you why I cry
And I told you why nothing is okay
I told you why I lie

And all I asked of you
Was to stay silent in its wake
To think about what you're gonna say
With every breath you take

But you couldn't listen
No, you never could
You went against the one condition
And left me where I stood

And I was riding so high
You had to bring me down
You figured I can't be happy
With no one around

You gave me another reason to hate you
Another reason to cry
Another reason to be glad
I said goodbye

And the hits just keep on coming
My world can't be left still
There's always another earthquake coming
Another dream left to kill

I'm standing on a hillside
Looking into your eyes
You stand there with your bow and arrow
Looking so sexy in your guise

So I'm begging you please
Just aim for the head
Cause you couldn't break me down anymore
If I was dead
Some people are just awful listeners.

Yeah. And they know what'd happen to you if they don't. Still they act in the same selfish manner.
