Stupid

Night lift up the shades

let in the brilliant light of morning

but steady there now

for I am weak and starving for mercy

sleep has left me alone

to carry the weight of unravelling where we went wrong

it's all I can do to hang on

to keep me from falling

into old familiar shoes

how stupid could I be

a simpleton could see

that you're no good for me

but you're the only one I see

love has made me a fool

it set me on fire and watched as I floundered

unable to speak

except to cry out and wait for your answer

but you come around in your time

speaking of fabulous places

create an oasis

dries up as soon as you're gone

you leave me here burning

in this desert without you

how stupid could I be

a simpleton could see

that you're no good for me

but you're the only one I see

everything changes

everything falls apart

can't stop to feel myself losing control

but deep in my senses I know

how stupid could I be

a simpleton could see

that you're no good for me

but you're the only one I see
