TRAGIC YOU
Tragic fashion when you think what youre wearing is still in style
You'll wait five years for it to be in again,
Tragic life when you do the same thing everyday and expect different results,
When its either your way or no way,
Because every time you get your own way you think you've won but in the long run you've lost at great personnel cost.
In your wonder world its always 1982,
Nothing has changed and nothing different will do,
I didn't move away from you, you left me by the act of standing still,
It's what you want, it's what you will.
Tragic person while you wait for the world to come to you,
Angry with God for not tailoring the world just to suit you,
The jokes on you, cause nothing will change until you carry your own cross everyday.
Wasting away precious days playing the victim,
Put down that gun, swallow those words,
Cause I don't want to know the rumours you've heard, and the suspicion you nurse,
What about forgiveness and turning the other cheek, only then will you gain what you seek.
Love isn't love when its all a one way street,
Love isn't love when your loved ones are wounded and beat,
Love is not love when your pain is all that matters
And love is not love when men's hearts are torn and tattered,
Love is not love when you wont hear what I have to say,
It's not right to make me wait another day,
When people are seen as cannon fodder, and my screams are only a constant bother.
I know life isn't fair but I've tried to be there for you,
You don't have to push down on other side of the scales,
When I'm trying to tip the scales in your favour, to right those wrongs and make life fair.
Its nothing new, maybe a case of deja vu
Its that reoccurring dream building up steam burning a hole in your brain leaving an immovable stain,
Here we go again around the mountain
