Smiley
Now You Make Me Angry Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know it's not clever
I know it's not smart
I know I won't survive till the day you come back
I'm waiting for some answers for the questions never asked
I'm waiting for solutions on the problems of the past (And I'll just sing)

Please don't love me for what I've done
Instead love me for who I am

If you don't love me anymore
Just walk away and close my door
And I'll just throw the ring of covenant to the shore

I'm free from the commitment
I'm free from the pain
I'm free from all the lies that your love will stay the same
I'm free from the disaster of spending my forever with you
With you

Please don't love me for what I've done
Instead love me for who I am
If you don't love me anymore
Just walk away and close my door
And I'll just throw the ring of covenant to the shore

I won't wait any longer
(The lie you said to me)
I will find another
(We'll be together)
I won't wait forever
(For eternity)
I won't wait any longer
(The lie you said to me)
I will find another
(We'll be together)
I won't wait forever
(For eternity)

But still
I still
I still love you so deeply
Your heart will complete me
A smiley, a letter
A flower and a feather
And if you ask me if I hated you
My answer is never

Please don't love me for what I've done
Instead love me for who I am
If you don't love me anymore
Just walk away and close my door
And I'll just throw the ring of covenant to the shore

If you don't love me anymore

Just walk away and close my door
And I'll just throw the ring of covenant to the shore

If your love for me has vanished

And I'll just throw the ring of covenant to the shore
I will throw away everything we shared and promised at the shore.
