again and again MAG

You ask me how my day was
Like you always do
Should I tell you everything?
What made me laugh, what made me cry
The song that reminded me of you?
But that wasn’t the intention
I watch your eyes glaze over
They look me up and down
Never bothering to go beyond the surface
I know what you want to hear
I know the small talk’s a show
I always let it happen
But I can’t seem to let you go
Why do you try so hard?
You always get what you want
Just to leave it all – unscarred
Again and again
