killing me lyrics

I don't mind
The abuse
It fills in time
When I'm not much use

But it's killing me
Killing me slowly

They all say
I'm too restless
But, words cut deep
When you're defenceless

And they're killing me
But killing me slowly

There was a time when we were fine
And I could tolerate you
I do believe that you should leave
'Cause I've grown to hate you
Should I be weak and turn my cheek?
'Cause I'm scared to fall
But I just don't know you
And you don't know me at all

I've been told
That love's a celebration
But I've lost faith
Through frustration

And it's killing me
And killing me slowly

You paint my picture black
The joke's on me
And I don't wanna laugh
Remember the good times
Won't you bring them back someday, somehow?

I don't mind
Feeling blue
If I could smile
Just like you do

And it's killing me
Killing me slowly

I can't go on alone
Pretending nothing's wrong
Maybe I just want to belong
Someday, somehow
Somehow
