There is something I have known ever since I was born is
“I’ll never catch that damn Red bird”
My guess is as a good as yours
All I’ve known is behind closed doors
I should’ve learned from my previous mistakes
If I’m quiet I’ll never put you in your place
When you pay for dinner you play for keeps
If the crops all die then there’s nothing to eat
The birds of a feather are pecking at the hands that fed us too much
And the gesture suggest wе stay in touch
Did it hurt when you fell off the wagon
Do you know whеre you buried your hatchet
A little too late to look the other way
I’m a sitting duck dodging bullets on the lake
I wouldn’t put it past you to snap the olive branch
Or push me down the pecking order just to get revenge
I’m a lab rat in a maze and the exit is a snake
So put me out my misery or let me out this cage
Spit it out before you choke
I know what you want to do but it won’t work
Avoid decisions
Be passive aggressive
I learned all my lessons from the Hollywood westerns
It’s been a while don’t waste my time
Just look me in the eye when I show off my new spine
Fall from a height in which you can’t look down
Waiting for the moment that you hit the ground
Will you remember how it felt next time you aim below the belt
I will no longer be a victim of all the smoke in your broken mirrors
I’m not yours anymore
I meet you in the middle at sundown
Guns out
Shoot out over affection or the ghost of what once was
If you’re playing victim
I’m living as a villain
Touted like a snake oil cure for my ailments
What’s yours is yours and yours alone
As opposed to the Ours that I used to know
Now look me in the eye before you hit the floor
I’m not yours anymore
If you swing you better hit the king
I’ll pick up the pace while you drag your feet
Your smoking guns were set in stone
Point your finger to the mirror and the damage is done
It’s better late than never
Let me sever this endeavor
Catch me stealing all your thunder
As I twist the knife in deeper
I’ll say it again while I’m heading out the door
I’m not yours anymore
