So you think you’re in love
Ya got your motorized dreams
With pennies to pay.
Driving in two lanes
Down a single lane highway
Playing the hero
With foolish pride
Neglecting the truth
‘s gotcha all in knots on the inside
got the little bastard demon
whispering in your ear
as yer pushin down the asphalt
kickin life into gear
Ya think you’re in love eh?
What do ya know?
To busy playin martyr
To see shes puttin on a show.
A one act play
With trepidation in her eyes
she cycles through the script
replays all the lines
you’re only the next fool
too wrapped up in the game
so many before you
without a face or a name
she’ll suck out yer life
spit out your blood
upside down by the ankles
draggin yer face in the mud
take heed my warning
Hell, Ive nothing at stake
But you could lose it all my friend
O’er this one you call fate.
Losing your sanity
Heart tattered and torn
Washed up limp and lifeless
Like death on the shore
So you think yer in love eh?
