You're not God
You're not even a man And these are the things that you don't understand One look from you and I fall from grace You've got fear eyes and pain on your face You're tongue strikes me like a knife through my heart Baby can't you tell that it tears me apart You left my heart baby twice before And it feels like you're trying to keep an open door You pull me close and then push me away Asking me where we stand ten times a day You left my heart baby twice before And it feels like you're trying to keep an open door You're not loving me's my greatest fear And the words that you've spoke are all that I here Louder and louder inside of my brain Till it's so loud that it drives me insane You're not God You're not even a man And these are the things that you don't understand. |

She never actually said "you're not even a man "
It was more the feeling it left me when she said you're not God. We had about 10 years of a tumultuous relationship, another 10 years of tumultuous marriage, and 10 more years of living together. The song was written in the first 10 years part, and the feeling at the time was spurred by an affair with my best friend she was having at the time, and an argument we were having. |

This is a well composed reflective expression.
