This Woman's Work
Jan. 5th, 2002 02:40 amPray God you can cope.
I stand outside this woman's work,
This woman's world.
Ooh, it's hard on the man,
Now his part is over.
Now starts the craft of the father.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things I should've said,
That I never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things I should've given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.
Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.
(I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.)
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've said,
That were never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things that you needed from me.
All the things that you wanted for me.
All the things that I should've given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go away.
Just make it go away now.

Jan. 5th, 2002 02:45 amHelpless.
I am completely helpless against the torrent of emotions
which flow through my on a daily basis.
I feel...
like smashing faces.
I feel like screaming. And hitting. And crying. And forgiving.
Where all of this comes from, I'm not completely sure.
I've been the most maudlin of wrecks, lately. And keeping
it hidden from those it should be hid from is becoming more
and more of a daily task.
I can only sit and stare out the window for so long.
And I completely understand where you're coming from. I know
what you're feeling. I know the hate, the anger, the betrayed
hurting heart. I know the seething poison which lies just under
your skin.
I'll never give in.
I'll never give in.
I'll never give in.
I'll never give in.
I'll never give in.
