Merry-go-Round

Sweetie let’s hit the breaks

You’re eyes are closed and now I can’t see

My world is dark

I’m in an ocean surrounded by sharks

You and I both know I have a cut above my eye

Don’t let me bleed

In our relationship tomorrow never comes

yesterday never sleeps

Why you still mad?

Today is never enough

They’re five elephants on the opposite side of the scale and they’re getting out weighed by a feather

Having a conversation doesn’t exist in our reality

When it rains it burns

Can’t you see we’re swimming in fire?

You say I can’t fix it

So why does it matter?

My heart took too many knives

I’m ugly to you now I can feel the stabs

You can open your eyes now my back is turned

Your heart looks good though

I see now why we didn’t take turns

You’re calling for me to come back

I’m calling for the lord

Hmph…

Back at the beginning that never starts so never ends

Passion and pleasure made love and created a testimony

I formed a legacy off of intimacy

I might die holding my manhood is my humility

I’ll never taste true love is my heart’s poetry

This pen in my hand will pay the royalty

There’s no stopping the marry-go-round
