Self Inflicted Stress

Didn't occur to me
That you'd even care
Thought that I was free
Anytime and everywhere
A lesson I can learn
And give one in return
Listen to what you say
Are you sure you feel that way
I can only give so much
As hard as I might try
But you can't get enough
Of anything to satisfy
No wonder you're a mess
Self inflicted stress
Can't get no relief
Condemn yourself to grief
Now I see the light
That lies within your eyes
It's not that you're not right
But you must realize
We waste our time and fight
It's not always black or white
A zone between exists
No matter how hard I insist
You'd rather look away
Push me on the outside
Make me swallow my pride
Than pretend that it's okay...
