"I Thought" lyrics

Face down licking the concrete child
I thought I knew you oh so well
How many times will she feel so low?
How many reasons for her to live in hell?

I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?
I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?

Taken in too much anything
They've beaten her down to the ground
And only time will tell me
If she's gonna make it her way or turn it upside down

I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?
I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?

I'm broken down, I know what it's like
To want you close to me, baby

A taste, a bite, a sleepless night
Another promise, another dream
She can't confide. She'll hold it inside
Till she's losing every inch of reason

I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?
I thought I told you all this too many times
I thought I knew you, why'd you keep it silent from me?

I'm broken down, I know what it's like
To want you close to me, baby
Yeah, no, yeah
