Never Met

There lives a waring within me
made up of kindness and fury
the judge and the jury
they all cast their votes.
Anger and reason
they fall to quick season
the shifting of tideline
the blink of an eye
And its always this
what I should, and I shouldn't
what I could, and I couldn't
well it always seems the same
So I summon my patience
but it's stinted and short-lived
you lash up my back
your tongue like a whip.
Then when calm and collected
I pick up the pieces
I patch up the drywall
from the storm that blew through
In total disbelief and in discontent
I stay fixed with you
I will not relent.
Out of loyalty
and in arrogance
I inherit debt
from men that I have never met
Never met,
Never met,
From men I've never met.

About You

Well I get lost in my mind
and I get trapped from time to time
and I can only think about you
yes I can only think about you.
Well I get lost in my mind
and I get trapped from time to time
and I can only think about you
yes I can only think about you.
Well I get lost in my head
and you know sometimes I wish I were dead
and I cant believe all the misery
and all them tears that you done shed for me
Uh oh, it seems that Ive taken it too far
just another drunk night out at the bar
and I can only think about you
yes I can only think about you
Well you took my heart and you threw it on the floor
I hope he can live with the way you were before
Now that I can live without you
Now that I can live without you.

Worth My Time

You're not worth my time anymore
I can see my life being, better without you
You keep my down just enough to keep me here
You kick me down just enough to live in fear
Ill chase it down with a bucket of beer
Im gonna leave and you'll be fucking lost cause...
You're not worth my time anymore
I can see my life being, better without you
Oh my shit you're so fucking clever
hope you never find peace I hope you live forever
I hope all your cats get hit by cars
I hope you final snap and end up behind bars
Roses have thorns...
You're a beast with tits instead of horns
you're a snake in the grass, a sociopath
a vulture overhead waiting to make a pass
where did you get that silver tongue,
that blade you use to stab everyone in the back
You attack...
You're not worth my time anymore
I can see my life being, better without you
