               The voice that you will not respond to
               Calls inside of you
               You shut it out with your religion
               The love of loving fools
               And hide behind your misery
               It's safe - it's nothing new
               The sanctuary of mild depression
               You love it don't you

               There's something about your suffering
               That makes me want to scream
               There's something about your fear
               That makes me ill
               There's something about your misery
               That makes me turn away

               'Cause I know it's all down to you
               'Cause I know it's all down to you
               'Cause I know the truth about you

               You cannot look me in the eye
               Your feelings won't let you
               Your feelings are your only reasons
               Like an animal - that's you
               Slower than a sack of Sundays
               Your cold hangover gloom
               I shouldn't say I told you so
               But I told you

               There's something about your suffering
               That makes me want to scream
               There's something about your fear
               That makes me ill
               There's something about your misery
               That makes me turn away

               'Cause I know it's all down to you
               'Cause I know it's all down to you
               'Cause I know the truth about you

               I see you walking home in the pouring rain
               I watch you walk away I want to call your name
               I feel your awkwardness
               I feel your crushing pain
               You really shoot me through like no-one else can do
               I see your frightened eyes when I'm alone at night
               Your heavy head hung low your ever silent groan
               I've watched you fading out, I want to scream and shout
               You are a pain in me that I cannot set free
               I love you
               I do
               I love you
               I do
               I love you
               I do
               I love you
               I do.
