Oil & Water

[Intro]

An instinctual urge to nurture

Can only take its hold for so long

'Til it turns to distain

Hatred can boil over in increments

I don't even cry anymore

Oh, to be a woman

Oh, to be a daughter

We can't fix each other

We can't fix each other

[Verse]

Powerlessness takes many forms

Mine takes hold in rage

Yours in fear

Oil and water

Opposing ends of the pole

You be North

I'll be South

We'll never figure it out, never figure it out

[Outro]

Comfort can disguise itself as plеasure

And the thirst for a man can't be mеasured

I'm not as strong as you think I am

Though I can be stubborn

I wish I could go back in time

Go back to when I was born

And prevent the misery from filling my lungs

Prevent the misery from filling my lungs
