Bridge over Troubled Water
time to burn it down and learn how to swim
I’m done, I’m done,
absolutely, fucking done!!
I’m sick of catching punishment,
from your momentary fun.
*
Tired of taking on your blame,
because you are unhappy.
And the way you talk to me,
the snide remarks when you are crappy!
*
There is no way in hell you love me!
No way you care at all!
Cause every time that she fucks up,
I’m the one who takes the fall.
*
I love your son, I really do,
you just can’t know how much!
But, I cant take this disrespect ,
I refuse to be your crutch.
*
I feel so dumb, so stupid,
that I gave you back control.
I wanted to believe so much,
our future was your goal.
*
You play it good, you hide that side so well,
that I questioned my decision.
I ignored the flames of hell,
second guessing my own vision.
*
You punch and kiss, equally as hard,
somedays I can’t tell the difference.
You’re the one who holds the cards,
I’m the one left incoherent.
*
Today you got your jab in,
I sure hope that it was worth it.
You will say you’re sorry,
but, I will still feel like shit.
*
What’s crazy is, SHE made you mad,
she poked you with that stick.
But I’m the one you lash out at,
the one you treated like a dick.
*
We are no longer married,
you made that decision clear.
I don’t know what is wrong with me,
why am I still standing here?
*
Allowing you to take your aim,
delivering your blows.
Why anyone would stand for that,
heaven only knows.
*
I'm angry, yes, that much is clear,
but I don’t think I spoke out of turn.
I think this bridge I’m standing on,
is one I really need to burn!!
