Manic
Cycle one
I'm happy now
Watch the smile grow
Can't believe you don't know
It's been a week
Start going down
Crying time
Bipolar

Sad
Cycle two
Watch the tears
What will they show
Trying to keep my composure
One more week gone
Tears drying up
Anger beginning
Bipolar

Rage
Cycle three
See me blow
Bite your head off
Can't express what's truly felt
Snapping at little things
Another week over
So what
Bipolar

Apathy
Cycle four
Whatever whenever however
Why should I care
I just don't want to
The last week lost
Sleep all day
Recycle me
Bipolar

Repeat
Not again
Make it stop
I don't want it
Just get used to it
Keep taking my meds
A little slower
Better control
BIPOLAR

I can see we're thinkin' bout the same things
And I can see your expression when the phone rings
We both know there's something happening here
Well, there's no sense in dancing round the subject
A wound gets worse when it's treated with neglect
Don't turn around there's nothing here to fear
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
You can set your secrets free, baby
Dusty words lying under carpets
Seldom heard well must you keep your secrets
Locked inside hidden safe from view
Well, is it all that hard
Is it all that tough
Well, I've shown you all my cards now isn't that enough
You can hide your hurt
But, there's something you can do
You can talk to me
Talk to me...talk to me
I can set your secrets free, baby
La, la, la, la...
Though we lay face to face and cheek to cheek
Our voices stray from the common ground where they
could meet
The walls run high, to veil a swelling tear
Oh, let the walls burn down, set your secrets free
You can break their bounds, cause you're safe with me
You can lose your doubt, cause you'll find no danger
not here
You can talk to me
Talk to me
You can talk to me
You can set your secrets free, baby
Oh, I can see you running...I can see you running
I can see you running all the way back home
I can see your expression when the phone rings
And I can see that you're thinkin' bout the same things
Is it all that hard
Is it all that tough
Well, you've taken all there is now baby
Isn't that enough
Well, I can see you runnin'...I can see you runnin'
All the way back
