The News (Part 1 & 2)

Part 1

The news
They tell me
I don’t want to know

The news
They tell me
Please don’t cry

The news
That they refuse to tell me
I will not like it

The news
They make me walk away from
But I wish to know

So I began to dig
Find out what happened
Last weekend
That Saturday night

And I began to ask
Even though everyone
Avoids me

Im a ticking time bomb
They don’t want to bear
The bad news that would cause me to
Explode

One friend, who did not realize
Told me of the night
Which you met another girl
And danced

The next friend, who asked how I knew
Told me of the night
Which she put her hands
All over you

I became determined to find this girl


Part 2

The news
Which has been kept from me
To keep me sane

The news
Which my friend is asking
Who told me

The news
I’m thinking was never supposed
To reach me

Yet it did
And now I know

Her name is somewhere along the lines of mine
Her face is much different than you like
Her eyes are pools of darkness
But people say she is nice

Her smile is always hidden like mine
She sings and lets everyone know
I hate the way I sound, so I don’t
And people say she is nice

This news
Should have been kept from me

This news
Should have been kept from me

Just a little bit longer
