My new song


Word Dancing

You hear what you want to hear
Filter my words with your own fear
You run when he comes near
I hear your silence loud and clear



We both live in our own mind
Looking for peace we never find
Life can be so unkind
I always feel one step behind


Can’t you just be happy for me?
I’m just trying to get my arms around me
Desperately trying to hold my breath
Living my life scared to death
If you happen to see a smile on my face
I’m sure there’s a line of a tear you can trace
But if you care so much about me
Can’t you just be happy for me?

Voice so cold it breaks my heart
Wall so thick can’t tear it apart
Word dancing is an art
Words withheld when teardrops start


Broken down trying to be tough
And anchored down by too much stuff
Might drown if seas get rough
Maybe love just ain’t enough


Can’t you just be happy for me?

I’m just trying to get my arms around me
Desperately trying to catch my breath
Living my life scared to death
If you happen to see a smile on my face
I’m sure there’s a line of a tear you can trace
But if you care so much about me
Can’t you just be happy for me?

Word dancing
Spin me round and round the floor
Word dancing
Always leave me wanting more
Word dancing
Spin my head, spin me around
Word dancing
Send me spiraling down

Why can’t you just say what you mean?
Why can’t you be happy for me?
Why can’t you just say what you mean?
Why can’t you be happy for me?
If you care so much about me
Can't you just be happy for me?
