Lyrics

You piss me off

You evoke anger in me

I love the colour of both your eyes

I appreciate the color of both your eyes

Because you’re mine

Because you belong to me

I can be unkind

I have the capacity to be harsh

But you never mind

But you overlook my flaws


You prove me wrong

You prove me wrong in our disagreements

I’ll fight it out so we get along

I'll confront issues for the sake of harmony

Because you’re mine

Because you are my possession

I’ll stay in line

I will conform to expectations

And you’ll say it’s fine

You reassure me that everything is acceptable


I shouldn’t say all the time

I shouldn't express my feelings all the time

But I’m glad that you didn’t die

I am relieved that you did not experience death

I would just stay in bed

I would prefer to stay in bed

Think of the things you said

Reflecting on the things you said

Sleep through the day and pretend I can dream it away

Escaping reality by sleeping and pretending


I would just break my neck

I would consider extreme actions

Or maybe just disconnect

Or perhaps disconnecting emotionally

Look through the photos and hope that'll make it ok

Seeking solace in memories captured in photos


You smoke a lot

You smoke excessively

But so do I so it’s probably fine

Similar to me, so it's likely acceptable

Because you’re mine

Because you are my possession

You can be unkind

You have the potential to be harsh

But I never mind

But I overlook your flaws


You make a mess

You create disorder

But your smile lights up the whole damn room

Yet your smile has a positive impact

Because you’re mine

Because you are my possession

You’ll stay in line

You conform to expectations

And I’ll say it’s fine

And I reassure you that everything is acceptable


I won’t complain all the time

I refrain from complaining incessantly

Cos I’m glad that you didn’t die

I am thankful that you did not experience death

I would just stay in bed

I would prefer to stay in bed

Think of the things you said

Reflecting on the things you said

Sleep through the day and pretend I can dream it away

Escaping reality by sleeping and pretending

I would just break my neck

I would consider extreme actions

Or maybe just disconnect

Or perhaps disconnecting emotionally

Look through the photos and hope that'll make it ok

Seeking solace in memories captured in photos
