Sensitive Subject Matter - Bonnie McKee

I told you I would be there for you

a promise I intend to keep

but the subject matter hits

a little too close to home

and now I can’t take back what I gave

A lot of times we’ve seen

the states that we’ve been in you always save me from my troubled self

it seemed

but now I’m hearing all these words you say

and I’m not sure if I can stay

and listen to you melting all my dreams

Baby it’s you

that kept my feet on the ground

thought that I could choose

if I always wanted you around

Darling I do think we need time apart

I still need time to mend my broken seams

I told you I would listen to you

So I’m all ears

But don’t ask me to respond to your pleads

for my advice

cause now I’m too burden to speak

Baby it’s you

that kept my feet on the ground

thought that I could choose

if I always wanted you around

Darling I do think we need time apart

I think the time has come for me to go

I can’t be by myself

but there is no one else

and well it hurts to know someone else

tastes your lips

but I cannot forget how hard I cried

when I discovered you had lied

when you said I could never hurt like this

Baby it’s you

that kept my feet on the ground

I thought that I could choose

if I always wanted you around

Darling and I think that we need time apart

and I think the time has come for me to go

Cause I’m weary, I’m so weary

I told you I’d be there

I’m broken, I’m so broken

but I’m here

It’s painful, It’s so painful

I told you I’d release our secrets

I cannot afford to hear

Oh, these secrets I cannot afford to hear, no no
