I hate that saying, "Cats caught your tongue?"
Well if I had you wouldn't be talking
And taunting and hushing yourselves,
Like startled chickens squawking.
You wouldn't be gossiping with one another,
About the man I would become.
When you don't know me…
And to my feelings you're all numb.
You'll never know me…
Or my pain.
The storms are rolling in,
And I stand out in the rain.
Never know me…
You'll never take me in.
And now the rain is pouring,
And this cat-can't-swim.
There will never be a person who,
Can see behind this façade and tell me "I know you!"
Never know me…
Yeah I hold some spite,
Cause the family's in their beds and I'm put out every night.
I'm alone…
And as the members of the family say
You will always live to rue the day
When my pointless life got in your way
When the monster crossed your path.
Make it stop!
Do they even realize, they are forming a monster that they can despise?
Make it stop!
Would they listen if I were to say, your making it worse! Get out of my way!
Make it stop!
Must I come to realize all your fears and shifty eyes…
Make it stop!
Are what I have to see, just from looking in the mirror to see…
Make it stop!
The monsters not me!
Make it stop!
The monsters not me!
…not me…
