| I was beyond aching to the break of dawn taking
|
| Pictures in my mind of the way she got quaking
|
| Limbs to settle with them heavenly palms gracing
|
| Arms that’d be reaching for the shape of her escaping
|
| I wonder where it went, you know that good old sensation
|
| That had our bodies fastened, now it’s got me asking
|
| Was it just a smokescreen from the very opening
|
| Of this close thing that fell apart into loathing?
|
| But if it was sincere, then tell me
|
| Nah, nah, if it was sincere, then really
|
| How’d the hell we
|
| End up like this?
|
| You living easy, but me I’m looking lifeless
|
| When people see me, they’re calling you a trife bitch
|
| They don’t understand, well neither did I
|
| Too bad the pills didn’t keep you from breeding them lies
|
| When I was deep in them thighs
|
| Infatuation turned to anxious waiting for you to give me another reason to cry
|
| I feel shitted on
|
| With my hands on my head
|
| And my chest still beating though you left me for dead
|
| I feel shitted on
|
| Was I the man of your dreams
|
| Or just a meaningless piece of your plans and your schemes?
|
| I feel shitted on
|
| You know i’d treat you like a goddess
|
| Gave you everything but you could never keep a promise
|
| Shitted on
|
| My house’ll never be your home
|
| If you’re the only one then, yo, i’d rather be alone
|
| Well, putting back together all the pieces was tough
|
| I wore my heart on my sleeves, now I bleed through the cuffs
|
| Wasn’t fucking with no empty headed creature of lust
|
| She was my earth, wind, and fire, burning deep through the crust
|
| But then suspicion arose and what this chicken disclosed
|
| Rendered her love letters phony fictional prose
|
| It was blood, guts, and whiskey
|
| Lungs rusted, sixty
|
| Cigarettes a day but I cut back to fifty
|
| Double that in years and you may grasp the solitude
|
| Wastelands I’m crawling through
|
| But I gotta pretend I’m perfectly polished, new
|
| And ready for display on that show room floor
|
| But the salt of her lips keeps these old wounds sore
|
| I’m needing more than medicine
|
| Love was full length so I wore it as a second skin
|
| Now I want to tear it off and throw it to the reckless wind
|
| And flip a middle finger the direction that it’s exiting |
