Sitting down in the middle of the bed
i look up
i look down
i look to the right
to the left
waking up in the middle of the night
sweating all over
i tiptoe to the other room
trying to make sense of this new "fear"
fear that i once thought
has been conquered
fear that i remembered banishing from my kingdom
has once again come to stalk me
leaving me breathless
leaving me blushing
sleeplessness is the new mantra
carefully weighing my words every time
just to make sure i dont blabber
i dwell in this new found misery
like shakespeare's - to be or not to be
i weigh my options
should i or should i not
just 2 choices
either this or that
but with the power of 1000 elephants in each
i wake up everyday wondering if my castle will come breaking down
or if my castle will have a new occupant
i pick up the phone,
trying to get rid of this once and for all
i dial the number
hoping to get an answer
suddenly i wonder what if?
will i be able to?
why again?
while its no fault of mine
i wish i could put that out of my mind
i put the phone down
crawl back to the bed
whisper to the invisible person infront me
and say "look what you have done"

No no.. this is def not a blame game :) and not at all intended in that way in any sense.
only 4 lines are indicative of that. but rest of the lines are not directed in that way :)
While i do agree on the fear part, at the time of writing this, that was the only thing in mind. black mail, confusion etc... arent part of this one :)
ofcourse the way one reads it defines the meaning :)

Yes Blood Lime
that song was the inspiration to this one. but in a way its not the same while at times it is at certain lines :)
Lets just say the painting at this moment (personally) is only one view :)

The way I see it...
Well... it reads like blame game to me - which would go no where, but in circles - fear, bully - emotional black mail - causing confusions, disturbing behaviors... well insanity! A powerless idiot would do that... else they would get into proactive action...wouldn't they?
well... yea. I guess one can get deeper into this... :)

r u sure this one has only one meaning? ot it could be like watching a painting from both sides.
I followed the title coz it reminded me of a song 'look wat u've done' and I'd say those lines had somekinda weary similar fear :
Take my photo off the wall
If it just won't sing for you
'Cause all that's left has gone away
And there's nothing there for you to prove
Give me back my point of view
'Cause I just can't think for you
I can hardly hear you say
What should I do, well you choose
Oh, look what you've done
You've made a fool of everyone
Oh well, it seems likes such fun
Until you lose what you had won
And that is ... a lovely picture ...
