Don’t Take It Out On Me Lyrics by Asha Banks
Through the door, put on a brave face for this evening
Pick you up, I’ll hold it down
Talk it over, tell me everything you’re teething
Chew it up and spit it out
Though I’m not see-through
The suffering gets me too
I know you’re confused
With the way I’m dealing
But looks can be deceiving
I’m trying for you
Don’t take it out on me
I know you wear your feelings on your sleeve
I tuck them underneath
And it’s harder when I make it look so easy with my
Stone eyes, I’m on thin ice, trying to hide the cracks beneath my feet
‘Cause, God knows, the water’s deep
So don’t take it out on me
When I sink, you come and swim me to the surface
Hold my hand, and help me cry
You know I’m the first to say that you’re the last one who deserves this
My love is yours, your pain is mine
Though I’m not see-through
The suffering gets me too
I’m trying for you
Don’t take it out on me
I know you wear your feelings on your sleeve
I tuck them underneath
And it’s harder when I make it look so easy with my
Stone eyes, I’m on thin ice, trying to hide the cracks beneath my feet
‘Cause, God knows, the water’s deep
So don’t take it out on me
Ooh, what if all the aching
Ooh, hits the ground beneath and breaks it?
Ooh, will I have the strength to make it?
When I’m finally forced to face it on my own
I’m not see-through
The suffering gets me too
I know you’re confused
With the way I’m dealing
But looks can be deceiving
I’m trying for you
‘Cause, God knows, the water’s deep
