I feel like stupid
Everytime I sit at home just staring at the telephone
Disgusted and alone
because I love you

I feel like stupid
Every time you look away and act as if I were a
stranger
What would people say
Because I love you

But the truth is an ugly, ugly thing
I'm the rust around your golden ring
I'm a yo-yo on your jagged string
I'm something that is nothing
I'm the ogre in your trading post
I'm the one that you crave and you fear the most
I'm the wind in the trees when you hear a ghost
I'm nothing that is something to you

I feel like stupid
Putting my heart on a shelf 'cause you are too outside
yourself
To hold up without help
And still I love love you

I feel like stupid
Now you mean it, now you don't
And now you're hot and now you're cold
Just where is your backbone
And still I love you

But the truth is an ugly, ugly thing
I'm the rust around your golden ring
I'm a yo-yo on your jagged string
I'm something that is nothing
I'm the ogre in your trading post
I'm the one that your crave and you fear the most
I'm the wind in the trees when you hear a ghost
I'm nothing that is something to you

I'm so tired, I'm so tired
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
Why do you always lie to me, oh
Why do you always lie to me
Why do you always lie to me,
just why do you always lie to me?

But the truth is an ugly, ugly thing
I'm the rust around your golden ring
I'm a yo-yo on your jagged string
I'm something that is nothing
I'm the ogre in your trading post
I'm the one that your crave and you fear the most
I'm the wind in the trees when you hear a ghost
I'm nothing that is something to you
