Mean to Me Tonic

[Verse 1]
There's an empty place inside that is hurting me
A place that keeps my heart out on its own
A disconnected function of my wretchedness
That keeps me so hard pressed

[Verse 2]
It's a place where words are spoken you will never hear
A broken bridge of lines that just won't come
An empty lung that won't give the wind to speak at me
How far can it be from home?

[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so mean to me?
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see?
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
So why you gotta be so mean to me?

[Verse 3]
Do you think that it got up and left for good this time?
A crowd of faceless strangers moving on
A feeling that you left it all behind you now
That it doesn't hurt somehow, to know

[Chorus]
Why you gotta be so mean to me?
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see?
You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
So why you gotta be so mean to me?
