no surprises

The last thing you said is you didn't understand me You've watched me disappearing the last few weeks Didn't know what to say, so I asked "do you love me?" You left the apartment, and I turned on the TV No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore The first thing I said was something sarcastic You had laughed at the joke, though we don't remember it You remind me of my Dad; I asked if that's weird You pulled me to your chest, and you turned off the TV No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore I can only see the best in people But that only makes things worse How many wounds until it's lethal? How many til it doesn't hurt? Do I love you as I see you? Or am I lying to myself? Have I laid you on an altar Just to send myself to hell? And I would love you to the end Or till you see the worst in me Why don't you just come to bed? Turn out the lights so you won't see My swollen eyes drunk on a fever Of preparing for this sorrow You know I wouldn't want me either So when you leave me I won't Follow No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore No surprises anymore
