Mind?
June 18, 1993
don ��t mind me
I ��m sick
bit it ��s just inside my head
I don ��t even believe you exist
most times
I ��ll look your way
I ��ll laugh at you
��cause it ��s easier than crying
I ��ll be pleasant with you
��cause I ��ve only remembered being cold
just laugh at me when I laugh at you
it ��s all I know, all I can know
don ��t mind me
but don ��t get close
I ��ll push you hard
find all your faults
so I can hate you
not to have to know
you won ��t steal part of me ��
don ��t get near while I ��m around
because I can ��t see you
nor see me on this bitter day
I ��m looking somewhere else, they say
laughing, crying at the world
I can ��t see you when I ��ve closed my eyes
and you can ��t look at me
if I don ��t care any more
will you please go away
it doesn ��t matter ��
I ��m sick, it ��s all inside
I ��ll hate you for a while
if you don ��t mind
don ��t look at me
��cause I can ��t tell when you ��re laughing with
it ��s all the same to hate your laugh
��cause I can ��t tell you can ��t tell
are you laughing at
with or without your world
who ��s laughter is this
don ��t mind me
I won ��t be your problem
just step over and by
I ��ll slide away
who needs you, you don ��t need my
blank stoned version of sanity
just step the hell away from ��
and I ��ll be quiet
stone silent
trying to be nothing
gliding away
inside
