Balance Lost

Lyrics:
We can bang loudly on the floorboards
There's nobody downstairs
They got tired of our antics
Feral romantics
You're asking questions you
Don't want the answers to
So let's pretend
It never happened
Every time you insult me as you're leaving
I have no more patience with
The nonsense that you believe in
I'm convinced there must be another way
Than bile and recriminations
Before I walk away
I'm in my own world
And you build a wall of self-help
Pages and pages
But nothing changes
I make lasagna, you do the ironing
Push one to many buttons
Why can't we do it in reverse
Save the worst for first
All the while You deconstruct my character
Flaws that soon reveal me
As conceited and contrived
But I might see the twinkle in your eye
Shows me something that you're hiding
That just might make it alright
-- middle --
Every time you insult me as you're leaving
I have no more patience with
The nonsense that you believe in
I'm convinced there must be another way
Than bile and recriminations
Before I walk away
All the while You deconstruct my character
Flaws that soon reveal me
As conceited and contrived
But I might see the twinkle in your eye
Shows me something that you're hiding
That just might make it alright
