Look At Me

All your carefully worded letters
All your carefully spoken words
They mean nothing to me, here and now
Look at me, right now
Look me in the eye
And tell me how you feel
Yes, I'm putting you on the spot
I know how you hate that
But, I don't really give a damn
Just tell me how you feel
Or don't feel
Just tell me, 'cause I need to know
Because all those concise and gaurded things
You say and write
Can't tell me how you feel
I can't take all this restricted speech
It isn't me...it isn't how I work
It isn't what I need...
Well, good, I got you attention
About damn time, too
I was afraid htat I was going to have to
Drop a piano on your head...
So, I'm all ears, it's now or never
Exactly, how do you feel?
