Vicious Devotion

Now this might sound one sides, and in a way it is

'Cause it's just me right now looking back on prior instances

I hope this doesn't lack the meaning I intend for

Or come across to strong and make things worse

I just think we could have been more, and still can

I mean I could give a lot more of me

More effort, less struggle, and a little more honesty

Cause honestly, it's time to man up,

I know you waited long enough

I let things rumble twice, the time I won't jam up

Still we've got issues, resolving is the key, obviously

But your philosophies I hope you know at times are hard for me

I want to see, but that novelty wore thin and lost its touch

Somewhere along the way it lost us

But I'm feeling better as the day goes by, still lacking motivation

And if patience ain't your virtue, your mask it in concentration

Getting stronger, night comes on,

Not just going through the motions

Cause if jealousy's our weak point baby,

Douse it with devotion

I'm trying to settle the score, you said you'd heard it before

And what's more, I got the passion to change

But not the patience to stop

So when I said it was wrong I really meant it was not

And we're not, and we can pick it up from where we left off

It's summer trips to that airport, your soft lips

The nights are just too short

It's cigarettes through the window, old Pogues tapes

Oh, where does the time go?
