What is the sake?
Trying to make
Notions keep gripping when none of them take
Motions in haste
How does it taste?
Tempers keep flaring when love goes to waste
Craving a shout
Moments of doubt
What ever happened to working things out?
Taking the flak
Never go back
Kings never win with the ace in the stack
Line in the sand
Gotta keep living the life that you planned
(Don’t let it beat you)
Broken you stand
Do you just fold ‘em or leave cash in hand?
(Don’t let it reach you)
All these thoughts in my brain
Comin’ in just like waves
They all say
There’s no way
But wait, just try to save
Every time there’s a change
It’s like an animal caged
Being tamed
Call it names
It’s coming in like
Waves
Follow the heart
Never depart
Memories kept me from fearing the dark
Up in my head
Nothing goes dead
Starving thoughts linger but I keep them fed
Pile of sh**
Get over it
Vacancy sign’s almost never been lit
You gave your trust
Turned it to lust
Soak it all down and then let it combust
Promises made
Crocodile tears on the cards that you played
(Don’t let her beat you)
Lie in the shade
Basking in roses; in water you Wade
(Don’t let it drown you)
All these thoughts in my brain
Comin’ in just like waves
They all say
There’s no way
But wait, just try to save
Every time there’s a change
It’s like an animal caged
Being tamed
Call it names
It’s coming in like
Waves keep rolling across the sand
Erasing the line from where we began
Can we differ between right and from wrong?
Will you just pretend that we never belonged?
The men on my shoulders both say to forget
You don’t have a reason for twice getting bit
Afraid you will choke when you swallow your pride?
Or think my love goes in and out with the tide?
