Pseudothyrum is Latin for a secret door or a backdoor. This is the fifth of six tracks on the EP “Isopanisad Radio Hour,” (Isopanisad is also known as the Isha Upanishad, which is really complicated to explain so I’ll just link to the Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isha_Upanishad) w...
[Verse 1]
Why do you treat me this way?
And why do you try so hard to break my spirit?
I think someone was mean to you when you were little
That's what I think
I think someone was mean to you
[Verse 2]
Why do you cling to such petty points of contention?
And why don't you allow me one or two small victories now and then?
I think someone was mean to you when you didn't deserve it
That's what I think
I think someone was mean to you
[Bridge]
But I, I am not that guy
Can you get that straight?
I am a completely different person
From the one you have in mind
[Verse 3]
Why do you stand by the things you say long after
You don't mean to hurt anybody anymore?
I think someone was mean to you for a long, long time
That's what I think
I think someone was mean to you
