So for the first four months it was bad And certainly
best for you that I didn't Carry a gun or know where
you lay your head at night And it was not her as everyone
had thought But you, how easily you were able to turn
away From all that we were Those things that you said
Admit it, your words they came as cheap as your breath
And with even less meaning,
you selfish fuck The next time that you tell me that
you love me Please look me in the eye so that I can
see the twitch And I will fight to keep my balance

Pray to hold my temper Ten years of history traded
away for a nickel and The world's most crooked grin
You would not know 'nobility' if it jumped right up
And punched you in the face And this rock won't turn
to a butterfly No matter how hard I squeeze But I will
face it while you look the other way Face it
(Always facing it) I believe that it's the only way
So many moments wasted on you and this rage Waiting
for the dust to settle Or these tears to dry or the
axe to fall Something has got to give
