As I rise, I wake up to find you had lied
When you told me you loved me last night
I should have believed my own eyes, he said
As I plead, I'm begging you down on my knees
Please tell me you're not gonna leave
The sting of my tears shows my need, he said
I appease as you tease while you spread your disease When you run away
And I scream as you scheme when you shatter my dreams When you run away
Still I try, and I cry But my love's still denied When you run away
I'm a drear little queer From your hate so severe When you run a-way
As I feel, the emotions that force me to see
I remember the times when I needed
Those times that you left me to bleed, he said
Now I know, that the love you portrayed was for show
And my anger and fear now let go
As my freedom may now overflow, he said
I appease as you tease while you spread your disease When you run away
And I scream as you scheme when you shatter my dreams When you run away
Still I try, and I cry But my love's still denied When you run away
I'm a drear little queer From your hate so severe When you run a-way
I can hear you, fear you, feel my heart lead astray
I can see you, be you, feel my love disengage
I can touch you, taste you, feel my hatred enrage
I appease as you tease while you spread your disease When you run away
And I scream as you scheme when you shatter my dreams When you run away
Still I try, and I cry But my love's still denied When you run away
I'm a drear little queer From your hate so severe When you run a-way
