Monkey Love...
Like a monkey you couldn't let go of one branch
until you had hold of another
all about you, your needs, your esteem
you reached out for some attention
accusing me of disrespecting two and a half years
yet you thought so little of my feelings
I'm questioning who I am and what I have to offer
if I can give so much and still lose
I guess you are right, I don't know you at all, how do I decipher so many lies
but I'm the bad guy, whatever you need to believe at night, I'll give it all to someone new
don't expect me to ever look at you
as angry as I am and the sleep I can't find
I feel sorry for you and whoever's next
come down from the trees and feel earth under foot
because no branch can hold what you bear
break free from your leash and find your own voice
there's no happiness in another's smile
an angel's face often hides a sad truth
trust is no friend of mine for a while
I guess you are right, I don't know you at all, how do I decipher so many lies
but I'm the bad guy, whatever you need to believe at night, I'll give it all to someone new
don't expect me to ever look at you
never forgive yourself? you and me both
