Vaporub Lyrics
Kept my heart locked away / Kept it far away from meFound a place by the river where nobody goes Buried far beneath the leveePlaces where I used to go / When it rained, my heart went deeperDeep blue underneath the sea / Washed away for no one to seeI don't have the feelings I'm supposed to knowI don't get the feeling that you understandOnly get the feeling that you're feeling sorry for meThat's never been the point of what i've saidNever really knew what love was / Mixed it up with other thoughtsGrowing up alone doesn't help one sort it outEven when you're here, you're notNever learned to trust another personNever knew a person who could understand my wordsWhy I chose to share them, I will never know, but knowingNo one took the time to understandDo I want forgiveness, or the thrill of maybe knowingI could change direction, never caring where I'm goingSometimes all the time it takes to make your destinationIsn't charted out as clearly as it seemsNow the smell of vaporub comes over meAll the shame of weakness builds againRules and expectations I can't follow any moreI became the person that I amWouldn't want to make you think you haven't found a way to meIt's only that it's not as simple as it seems to be
