Served Faithfully |
He caresses every bottle |
Like it’s the first one he’s had |
Saying |
It ain’t love |
But it ain’t bad |
It’s the only reward |
Bestowed upon me |
And i have served faithfully |
I can see he is scarred |
From doing some hard time |
But i let alone what is broken |
'cause it isn’t mine |
He strikes out at me |
When i am within reach |
Then he reaches for me |
When i draw the line |
Sometimes it seems like love |
Is just a fancy word for compromise |
You gotta read between the years |
You gotta write between the lines |
You gotta try to understand |
The grandness of the man behind the petty crimes |
And let him off easy sometimes |
I have only just met |
An old old friend |
We’ve been walking around holding hands |
I hope some day he can bend |
As far as it takes to understand |
And risk breaking open again |
