Lyrics for His Pleasure Is My Pain by Jewel:

| | Album: | unknow | | Track: | His Pleasure Is My Pain | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 67 | | | | Lyrics: | A man stands in the doorway like a small child
angry fists
she lies on her bed her head
buried in her pillow
and she stares at the moon
he speaks to her all the words shes heard
too many times before
and pretty soon she just let's his voice fade away
and she
thinks...
This was a gradual steel frost
that started with cold feet
and ended
with numb hearts
This was once satisfying sex but now no longer is
It was once
filled with the possibilities of new china or old stone
but now it's exaggerated and
waterlogged no longer what these
hands had
intended and still I cry in my
sleep
He always said I was too sensitive,
but I
say
(chorus)
at least I never meant to make him cry.
at least I never
meant to make him hurt that way
Nooo I never meant to make him cry
Never meant to make him
hurt that way
Yes it's true, I'm too sensitive
but he takes pleasure in my
pain.
Yes it's true, I'm too sensitive
but he takes pleasure in my pain.
And
the unheard hours they fly by
she goes to the window
she puts on a nightgown and brushes
her hair
he's already asleep
by the time she
goes and lays herself back
down.
she thinks
my god, what am i doing hear?
My bones have grown tired
of his hunger, of his gray eyes,
and I feel if I were to stay one more night here I'd die or
explode
or worse yet just fade away.
There have been days so dark that I felt like
august
and that I soon too would turn to fall.
he always said I was too sensitive that if
I cared so much
the world could kill me that way.
I wonder if he's only half alive or if
he's simply always been this
inarticulate,
cause i say
And she get's out of bed
and looks at her feet as though they
were the wings for her freedom
she gets up and goes
to the door
it's a moment in which anything can happen
instead she gets out some
clothing
puts it in a bag and leaves him sleeping
while she heads for the door | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
