Beer Pressure |
I had it nestled there, right beside my bed |
Bound in faux leather, and comfortably set |
Off to the side of a life largely predisposed to ignoring it |
I had it stationed there, ordered not to move |
It had pitched it’s creed, what was left to do |
Well you could sit and you could wait and there was not much else |
But tally years as they come, mark them down one by one |
Stifled dreams of mine, my claustrophobic mind |
They get lost and never find their way to you |
Words without a voice, our holy father’s choice |
I want to be used, what good am i mute |
I want you to yearn, i want my pages turned |
I want to be used, to pledge myself to you |
I won’t ever falter, no i’ll be forever your stubborn strength |
That is a promise that i’m able to make |
I won’t ever falter, no i’ll be forever your stubborn strength |
I can forgive you for making me wait |
You can’t reject me after all that i’ve done |
While you shuffle your feet, twiddle your thumbs |
I stand here before you with choice disguised as fate |
I give you the world and you shove it back in my face |
Hadn’t i known that salvation was prearranged |
Hadn’t i known that sinning was a calculated mistake |
Hadn’t i known that i was gonna need saving one day |
That it’s a destiny that we share |
Our god-given capacity to err |
And our history of fabled opportunity |
