Krazy Kyle Lapointe - The Way I Feel for You Lyrics

I was walking silent, next thing I know there's a gun to my head
She said, "Give me everything you have or else I'll shoot you dead"
So I emptied out my pockets, gave her my ring and car keys
She said, "No I want everything," l I asked, "What do you mean?"

She said, "Give me countless hours and give me all your heart
Give me what glue you have to keep from falling apart
Give me your compassion and give me your dignity"
I didn't know what to say or where to lean

You're a glare so bright the sun won't do
You're a fog so thick that I can't see through
A rock and a hard place, Catch-22
Is the way I feel for you
Whether cast adrift into endless sleep
Or forced awake for eternity
It's still a rock and a hard place, there's no hope for me
With or without your company

I asked her, "Why are you doing this?
Why see a man reduced to shit?"
What she said next
I could not expect
She told me she was held knife to her throat
By a big black mass, by a never-ending shadow
It told her, "I will kill you while you sleep
Unless you bring another offering for me"

As she spoke about the shadow man
She closed her eyes to remember or forget
She closed her eyes and I grabbed that gun
A shot went off but it hit no one
On the ground we wrestled bad
In the blood and dirt for the lives we once had
In the mess she got the gun
I got up fast and away I run

Running now through blankened walls
Where was I going before this? - I can't recall
All I knew was I had to move
She was on my tail and she was howling at the moon

Running now through towns and lakes
Through photographs and unexplored space
We ran away so far from truth
It amazes me the way I run from you
It amazes me the places I go to
To someday strive to get away from you
What have we come to?
