Song I wrote. Doesn't Work That Way.
Quote:
VERSE I
Someone's pulled all your triggers
Fooled you out of stability
Tell me, who is the killer?
Made our vows a mortality
You know, this love takes a lot for me
This just might be the end of it
You and I should be separate
I won't lie, there's no passion left in me
PRE-CHORUS
To the drinking and cheating
Need these things to believe
That you're the man that you see
When you look in the mirror
How you see through my tears
That collect like the sea
Hit me like waves in fury
Is clearly beyond me
CHORUS
It doesn't work that way
To say to me, baby
"Our day to day basics
Are me getting wasted,
And you going crazy,
And waking the neighbors,
So I'll try to change it,
When you get frustrated.
So, when we sign the papers
We'll be everything we'd said we'd be"
HOOK
But you're still the same
I'm a mess, I'm impatient
I hate that you have strayed
From the boy that amazed me
I race through my memories
To try to find ecstasy.
Cause the truth is , baby,
Is we're not working
So please let me be, on my way, today
Oh, please, let me be, on my way, today
Oh, please, let me be, on my way, today
Oh, please, let me be, on my way, on my way
VERSE II
Doesn't matter if you slur,
Cause it never meant anything
Walk in and out of the door
Ends up hitting me anyway
I cannot do no more
With your pretense of apathy
But can you feel the floor
As you sit there and lay there with me?
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
HOOK
BRIDGE
Your confessions belong in the trash
Like your last round of drinking
Depressed while you laugh
That the world has you screaming
I'm stressed, and you tease me
Call me weak, and uneasy,
There's no reason to be this way
There's no reason to be this way
HOOK
CHORUS

Some of the Hive just like to find something to complain about, tbh. Just like some of the Hive want her to go back to cookie cutter pop radio hits even though we all know Bey is never going that route again. It's all about success for bragging rights on ATRL
If they don't get the point of BEYONCE now they never will

OK. They've spent the WHOLE year complaining about lack of promo now all of a sudden she's overexposed. Just because YOU choose to talk about her every day doesn't mean she's overexposed to the rest of the world. Ask Asia, Africa, Europe, SA, and Australia how they feel about it?

i have a strong feeling she just had no idea what she wanted to do for the album..... whether or not to release GW or SOTS
Then in June she decided to do the visual album and it became the most amazing idea ever
|
no i think the album is the vision that Beyonce wanted...it matches the descriptions that she gave in GQ & Vogue earlier on that year before the Superbowl. the album has the same music that she recorded in 2012.
all that stuff about it being scrapped & shelved was hogwash...read GQ & Vogue.

 You can be overexposed through other means besides music, that isn't a new concept
And I haven't seen anyone wishing her to make another IASF, we want her to promote whatever music she makes whether it be XOs or Rockets like I don't see the problem with a popstar promoting their music

You guys need to give up the promo stuff. Obviously Beyonce is in a new phase of her life & career and her priorities and philosophies have changed. she has made it SO clear over these last couple yrs.
she had pockets of time to do all the shows...US & internationally...and did none of the above. what does that tell you?? ya'll keep typing down "PROMO!1 PROMO!!!11 WE WANT PROMO!!11" and she doesn't care. She's chilling with her husband & kid and she is letting the music do what it does.
this isn't the same Beyonce from 10 years ago...she is not going to overwork herself more than she needs to anymore. She worked hard to build up a name & brand to do how she pleases.

Not chart?
That's a great way to end your legacy, slightly promote the lead single and let the rest fall into oblivion never to be heard or recognized by the GP

I agree
I'll give her the tour, she wasn't just sitting on her butt this whole era, but next time if she's free and she doesn't bother what's the point of stanning. I enjoy music regardless of stanning but I want to be able to enjoy her, and like I've said before in here without having to spend hundreds of dollars on tour tickets

yeah, i agree with anvarie. shes definitely overexposed right now in the media and its not her fault. in the past week alone, i have heard people discuss the divorce rumors, and THREE professors who were discussing Wendy williams and brought up her beyonce comments, including the photoshopping thing 
i just think the media's focus is too much on her personal life. maybe if she did interviews/performed, the focus will def shift to the music. she could start interviews/performances in asia, australia, europe, and the us will follow.
