Lyrics
Strict-9
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You - You're not asking questions that I don't have answers for
You're hard to fool
But not too hard to do
You played it cool
But cool can get you screwed
And I'm way too fucked up on that to allow myself a way to get back
You - You're not taking actions for responsibilities
And these are only words
And, yeah, they are yours
And you know that of course
But we have tricky words
And I'm way too fucked up on that to allow myself a way to get back
You - You were throwing caution to what you were pissing in
Pissing in the wind - and that's the shape I'm in
I took that on the chin - the circle's closing in
And you don't have to grin - or give my world a spin
And I don't want to win- I just want to begin
And I'm way too fucked up on that to allow myself a way to get back
