The Despondency Of Men

He wants to mean something to me 
But he was just a dream that never got to be
And now he self flagellates
That he never took the girl on dates
And he makes do with what he has
But most of the time he just feels bad
That he settled for
Someone he could never adore
Only ever be useful to
And she’d skull the devil to get to you
Because you’ve got that verdant green
And arches her back the way it had never been
Before
And the shore
May be a more sunny shade of grey
But you and I were never that way
So I take the bull by the horns
But something warns
Me to just let it go
He’s not what you think, you know
And he rained bloody blue hell
On the summer of wishing me well
And I don’t know if he can tell
But when I fell
I fell hard
And let the bard
Inside of me run loose
But she has run out of juice
And gets by on mere gasoline
I wonder does she ever scream
When you make her high
I wonder does she feel you
When you wanna die
Like I do
I’m miles away and the needle pulls through
On another thread
I don’t want to be witness to someone else’s bed
But I feel it all
And I forestall
The grief
For mere belief
In who I am to be
You won’t make a whore out of me
