Quiet Violence lyrics

I know I'm hard to comfort, when you try and hold me
Too much love, it's pity but not enough
I'm worthless, there I go, hot and cold
Always a villain

Another confrontation, I'm always sorry
Marching on the pavement, with you behind me
Take it way too far, there you are
Always an angel

I can show you something real
Even though it's never easy
Tell me can you deal
With my quiet violence
This is my shadow
She was always coming with me
Tell me, can you follow my quiet violence

I look for affection
You don't say a word
You take it as rejection
Why does love make us absurd
Oh there I go, I don't know, how to be stoic
My skin inside out, feelings shout, deep down you know it

I can show you something real
Even though it's never easy
Tell me can you deal
With my quiet violence
This is my shadow
She was always coming with me
Tell me, can you follow my quiet violence
I try, I try to change her
Maybe I can't can't erase her
She's always in the corner
Waiting for me while I ignore her
I try, I try to hide her
I'm standing right beside her
She's always coming with me
Maybe she's the best part of me

I can show you something real
Even though it's never easy
Tell me can you deal
With my quiet violence
And this is my shadow
She was always coming with me
Tell me, can you follow my quiet violence
