Lyrics for Leopard and Lamb

Read your letter and finally I could cry But I don't really understand exactly why I guess I cried because I knew it was the end No more hate now, just learning to begin Learning how to crawl across a floor that's covered with glass Learning how to look away and never to look back I cannot fathom how we dragged it for so long And I think we both know which one of us was wrong But now I'm asked to act as if I didn't feel Anything from you, my friend, and it's a bitter pill to swallow You're right, this world is cold and all that I can do Is banish every thought of you, because you are so cruel Watch the Simpsons to remember how you laugh I miss your dark blue eyes, and staring at your back My leopard, my lamb You're right, this world is cold and all that I can do Is banish every thought of you, because you are so cruel Like learning how to crawl across a floor that's covered with glass Like learning how to look away and never to look back
