Array ( [sid] => 48980 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Killing Me [time] => 2004-05-24 22:23:20 [hometext] => My first REAL attempt at a song....lol. At the time I was going through some stuff I didn't understand...but I do now. [bodytext] => Why'd you give this to me?
Why'd you give me this curse you call a gift
I ask why oh why can't you see
That this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

There are times I thank the lord it's here
And there are times I wish that you were here
So I can ask you why can't you see
Why can't you see, this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

To see the unseen; to know what's there
To know why and when and where
I ask why oh why can't you see
That this gift, this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

When I die then maybe you'll see
That your gift, was killing me. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 191 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Dierna [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

Why'd you give this to me?
Why'd you give me this curse you call a gift
I ask why oh why can't you see
That this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

There are times I thank the lord it's here
And there are times I wish that you were here
So I can ask you why can't you see
Why can't you see, this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

To see the unseen; to know what's there
To know why and when and where
I ask why oh why can't you see
That this gift, this gift is killing me

Let it leave
Make it go away
No longer here
But gone to stay
I ask why is it killing me
Tell me why it is killing me

When I die then maybe you'll see
That your gift, was killing me.
