i'm waking up to us
I need someone to take some joy in something I do You need a man who’s either rich or losing a screw You know I love you here’s the irony You’re going to walk away intact I think you never liked me anyway You like yourself and you like Men to kiss your arse Expensive clothes Please stop me there I think I’m waking up to us We’re a disaster You don’t want to know me ‘Cause you move in circles of the brave Where art defines their lives She was the one love of my life, and I let her go And if I look like death today, then please let her know I never wanted to do harm to her I only wanted her to see The beauty of the world surrounding her But when she opened up her eyes It’s much too late Our chance has gone She’s with a guy Who takes the prize for everything I ever showed her Digging all the fun Beacause she’s older I fed her with a spoon I made her mother smile I helped the kid survive She was the one love of my life, she showed me the road I loved her dog, her steady gaze, the chapter is closed I always wanted all the best for her The best thing was to stay away She grew up and she left the rest of us And now the understanding’s gone I haven’t changed, how could I? I’m pretty much the same person I cannot keep the anger hidden anymore But lucky for you, you are not around My anger turn to pity and to love The season has arrived.
