It Makes Me Sad Lyrics

I know that something's wrong, and it won't be too long

Until bitter words and truth open up fresh wounds

See, all the dark within, is like a distant violin

It sings to you sometimes, and it keeps you cold at night

It knows a troubled mind. It lays and waits inside

Like a parasite; feeding while you sleep at night

If you don't face it soon, then you will be consumed

Oh, you know you're not immune...don't you let it finish you

I don't want to go this way, and leave my soul on display

To be scrutinized or weighed...this is not judgement day

Don't make me walk that path, don't you treat me second hand

I can not withstand...and it makes me sad

Whispers and secrets run, flowing like water from

Swollen rivers; they escape, betrayal in their wake

How does it speak to you, how does it bring you through from

The open, rolling skies into darkest, evil night

I see it taking hold, its roots and its twisting folds

Writhing uncontrolled...like the ocean flows

Don't let this come to pass, hold your anger and darkness back

I can not withstand, and it makes me sad

But baby this I know

You can not let go

Don't let it take your soul

I said it makes me sad
