It Took Me by Surprise Songtext

von Maria Mena

I would react badly to the slightest hint of hesitance
He'd bend awkwardly to suit my mood
No word from his defence
I'd cry knowing how my tears felt like acid
Burning through his skin
Pushed every little button but the right one
That would let me in

Now he's afraid of me
He's afraid of me

It took me by surprise
The hatred in his eyes
I've pushed this man as far as he could go
But he lacked the words to let me know
He acted out now I can see it is my fault

I made changes that went unnoticed
Sang song for deaf ears
Mistook my silence for punishment
As it had been all these years
I'd cry knowing how my tears felt like acid
Burning through his skin

Now he's afraid of me
He's afraid of me

It took me by surprise
The hatred in his eyes
I've pushed this men as far as he could go
But he lacked the words to let me know
He acted out now I can see it is my fault
