Turtle Lyrics

Nothingnew Turtle

I can’t see inside your head and now I’m sick of trying
I push, you hurt, I ask, you nod and then I heard you crying
You tell me later on, by then the blood is drawn
Who knows when you’ll take off and hide from all your worries
I walk on eggshells even so the path often eludes me
You say we’ll be okay, but sometimes I don’t know

[Chorus:]
Silence is your best friend, you cling when fear sets in
Please let me in your troubled world
Instinct you hide your thoughts, from me why can’t we talk
Please let me in your troubled world

I don’t intend to torture you so why does it still happen
I have to ask you ‘what did I do,’ the usual ‘oh nothing’
I’m tired of this game so please just let me lose
Let me in I want to help include me in your pain
If not, you’ll wither all alone, suffering in vain
You say we’ll be okay, now I know that’s a lie

I hung the phone up and I threw it at the wall
I stood by every time and watched you take the fall

[Chorus]
