What Happened, Looking Back?

from Love and All That Comes With It by Tom Alter

lyrics

I’ve heard you say before
I’m an open book
Yeah, I’m an open book
But you just close the door
And won’t allow a look
You won’t allow a look

What happened to you looking back
That you can’t look past, that you can’t look past?
What happened to you looking back
That you can’t look, that you can’t look?

You want to be understood
If you’re a blank slate
How do I get you?
There’s barriers on the road
To feeling the empathy
That you want from me, and so I ask you

What happened to you looking back
That you can’t look past, that you can’t look past?

It took so long to realize
There is just a single side
Relationship of only one
And only one who keeps herself shut down

What happened to you looking back
That you can’t look past, that you can’t look past?
