What I Want From You

Wish I could figure out what I want from you,
Though nothing for myself,
Cause I know better,

Thought you took all you wanted from me,
Cause you walked away,
Before sauntering back,

All things forgiven -
Are all things forgiven?
I'm sure this doesn't make much sense to you,
But your sense never lined up well with reality,
Wish I could see what you want from me,
My eyes clouded by a past not set free,
An anger that covers a hurt that still hovers,
Somewhere in me,
Deep,
A haze over all the memories of you that I keep,

I only wish I could get what I want from you,
But it's something for myself,
So I know better.
