Kissing Kate

I was kissing Kate
When you saw me, wait
No I take that back
Am I about ready for another attack
Coz the man swoops and then he siezes
Takes the name of my Jesus
In vain
And the pain
Rocks into me, back and forth
And he would have no remorse
If I didn’t cut him off
But all is not lost
I see his ship struggling on the tide
And he is barely alive
So I throw him a raft and dive right in
I can see her next to him
And jealousy burns
Coz he never learns
About anything I try to impart
And I know I shouldn’t have given my heart
To the first knave who crossed my path
Now I must face the demon’s wrath
For daring to surrender
A part of me I can’t remember
There’s bullets in the gun
And he shoots at me with one
But I, transparent and impervious to
His hits just watch him black and blue
Try to swing
At the diamond ring
I wear on my left hand
And it’s all sand this passing through
How did I not see that girl with you
Thought she was just a friend
Isn’t that how all good things end
Now we can’t make amends
I see you old and weary
And you never did see me clearly
Or you wouldn’t have tried
To attempt to say I had died
Or try to put my life
Into the category of second hand wife
I fluctuate
And you date
A plethora of women
But all of them just leave you swimming
In a ocean you cannot name
And you may never see me again
With that carry on
It’s a quarter past one and I’m already gone
