Benign Disillusion - The Accidentals

I’m stuck in a state of severe confusion

I’m stuck in a state of benign disillusion

Because I feel that I just can’t refuse in

Finding my way back to you

You caught me off guard, with your highly trained words

You’d absorbed the knowledge of the calls of the birds

And I leaned in to hear what you were saying to her

But your voice just wouldn’t come through

And I couldn’t believe that you wouldn’t receive

The hints that I was sending

And I couldn’t quite tell if you knew it was hell

To deal with your pretending

So please make up your mind

Be present or just be resigned

I’m caught in a net of severe confusion

A bear trap well placed in a leafy illusion

An ironic cage of iron seclusion

That is locked and is missing it’s key

I was wondering if you had known what you’ve done

Or if all your cruel torment has only begun

But you didn’t expect that you’d be outdone

For I found a new man who loves me

And I couldn’t believe that you wouldn’t receive

The hints that I was sending

And I couldn’t quite tell if you knew it was hell

To deal with your pretending

So please make up your mind

Be present or just be resigned

So please make up your mind

Be present or just be resigned
