There are vestiges of the beautiful hanging like stalactites
In the cave of the rave of you talking shite
And I walk along the line so the cops know I’m not drunk
And someone I love tells me I’m in a funk
And I cannot handle it and go off the rails
Because I didn’t buy this in the sales
It’s premium quality fabric and I made it myself
And that girl tells me that it’s my mental health
That has me seeing the love and the glow
In everything God touches and don’t you know
It’s everywhere that I look
Did you open the book
On the subject that I profess
Because I wrote it diligently
And I left it for you, religiously
And I’ve known faith, I’ve known prayers
I’ve known heaven and the stairs
That will take me there
But when you stare
I can’t return the gaze
So don’t expect me to, just save
It for the next chick
I can almost see her lick
Your cheek with her tongue
Like she did when you were young
And I give up
On the thing that I called love
Coz I saw marriage and babies
But you just treat me like I have rabies
And am infectious as hell
You scream it down the hall as you wish me well
Running for your life
Into the arms of your wife
The one who will defend
All the stories that you amend
With an almost made the plot
Like you almost forgot
The girl you remember
I see you next turn of the dial, December
