Shut up

Shut up

inside, feeling like a stupid girl trying to unglue
from love that won't be simply pushed away
that loss of us, the one thing I held true
breaks me down bit by bit each day

i see the looks on other men's faces
trying to get into my good graces
I can't hold their gaze, know they don't have a way
to break inside my frozen heart I deny

and I still hold onto
tiny flickering flame, the big romantic dope
a fool for you, lost still in hope
so Shut up powers-that-be
Seeing that name every day is killin me
when every night you visit me in dreams
breaking the facade again, ripping me at the seams
back down into a muddled mess, foolishly wanting your caress
