SickOfMe

                     how sick of me
                           must you be
                           by now
                           while you're standing just outside
                           of what your pride will allow
                           always reaching into yourself
                           to find a new way to understand me
                           when i'm sure that there's no one else
                           in the world
                           who could withstand me

                           the first person in your life
                           to ever really matter
                           is saying the last thing
                           that you want to hear
                           and you are listening hard
                           through the splintering shards
                           of your life as it shatters
                           and you're standing firm
                           and you're staying close
                           and you're seeing clear

                           i took to the stage
                           with my outrage
                           in the bad old days
                           when you were the make-me-mad guy
                           but the songs
                           they come out more slowly
                           now that i am the bad guy
                           and i say, i'm sorry i'm so crazy
                           I am astounded by your patience
                           and you say, believe it or not, baby
                           the joy you bring me
                           still outweighs it

                           the first person in your life
                           to ever really matter
                           is saying the last thing
                           that you want to hear
                           and you are listening hard
                           through the splintering shards
                           of your life as it shatters

                           and you're standing firm
                           and you're staying close
                           and you're seeing clear

                           how sick of me
                           must you be
                           by now?
