Letra de Poltergeist
i can't stand it when you tell our infant son

that he was born beneath a bad sign.

and i can't stand it when he smiles up at you

just because you're his mother.

and i can't stand the bitter thing that i've become

beneath the four walls that hold up our ceiling.

and i wonder when the house gets real quiet

who between us will be the first one to give into the feeling.

and i know you don't want me to hurt you tonight.

and i, i don't want you to hurt me the way you do.



i can't stand it when you put the boy to bed and ya

sing him those songs i used to sing to you.

yeah i can't stand to hear you sing those songs

when you know you don't mean them.

and i can't stand the way my body still remembers

how much we used to mean to one another way back when.

and i can't stand going back to seek the shelter of your arms.

and then i can't stand it again.

and i know you don't want me to hurt you tonight.

and i, i don't want you to hurt me the way you do.
