i took for granted what was made so obvious to me
i could never fathom the transience of our intimacy
i'd like to imagine that there is peace on earth
and between you and me
but the way it's going you keep on waging war
what's it gonna be?
one day you'll come back down to earth just to find
there ain't no one around who will swallow this anguish
maybe things will work themselves out in time
baby please
you took advantage and threw in my face all of the honesty
i listened carefully to everything that you were saying
manipulation may work with other girls
but it won't work with me
why don't you take a week off and get to know yourself
because you don't know me
