Declaring War

water's getting cold, body's growing old
you're high out of your mind, in the bath at morning time
when i left for work, ya gave me an emotionless smirk
you were readin' the art of war, i just scoffed on my way outta the door
out of the door
a true rock n roll suicide, lover what were ya tryin to hide
what is behind those wild eyes
i'm growing tried of the disguise
laid down my weapons, threw my arms to the sky
to prove to you my trust and there's no need to fight
but the idea of loving me, meant facin' insecurities
but your reflection so threatening, i just became the enemy
oh i became the enemy
you set your sights on me
oh i am the enemy
oh i am the enemy
and so the war was on, and so the war was on
and the war was on and the war was on...

tell me, tell me, tell me more
all those ideas that i adore
how you're gonna take care of me
how you're gonna set me free x2
hey hey you remind me of somebody
hey i know, it's my daddy
treat me like your little girl
you're gonna teach me all about the world
as if i couldn't do it myself
as if i actually needed your help
but you lied, you lied, i didn't know enough to see it at the time
but those eyes, those eyes, darling i was hypnotized
cos i was troubled youth
and you appeared to know some truth
but you were just insane
and i let ya into my brain
cos we were not in love
we were more so havin fun
til it came to a quick end
when ya tore my heart to shreds
ya kicked me out, ya kicked me out
as if i had something to be sorry about
and i believed, and i believed
cos your strings were still attached to me
you knew just what you were doin
i'm just mad i didn't beat ya to it
and how long till the spell is lifted
i said help me, help me i'm in love and it's toxic x3

today you fucked me black and blue
our bodies glistening through hot summer air
then a haunting feeling swept through the room
and little did ya know i began to shed tears into your hair
i couldn't let ya know, ya couldn't see me weak
so i pulled ya in closer and i screamed fuck me
i buried the sobs inside of the moans
cos our bodies were entwined
but i still felt, i still felt so alone
i knew it was a bad idea to come here
but it was just that i missed ya so much my dear
that i would even let ya use me up
for once last chance to feel your touch
and i don't know what was in it for you
cos you weren't the type who needed regular fuel
all that i know is that it left me confused
when i got dressed and left
and left, that afternoon
i remember my father said, whiskey and water was the best way to go
so when i'd get sad i would pour myself a glass and sip on it nice and slow
and the warmth crawled like spiders that were all set on fire
through my chest into my gut
and some scene that i drew in my head once of you
fizzles out just enough, just enough, just enough
i got so torn up some nights i'd go out looking for a fight or maybe just someone to take home
it was all just temporary but it made it all left scary than having to be alone
and though it wasn't you i simply just had to make do
a warm body to fill the space
but it was you that i loved, i truly couldn't stand someone sleepin where
you used to lay, used to lay, used to lay
but you made things this way x3
that's why this will never work..
cos you never kept your word
no you never
never
never
kept your word

My Way

The days seem to just float on by
taking on each of them one at a time
doin what ya can to make ya feel fine
and chasin the moments that make ya feel alive
got coffee with my sister a few days ago
we chatted inside and gazed out the window
and somewhere in that little cafe's glow
i found some sort of sense of home
got together with some friends to jam some tunes
we were shreddin, we were rockin to that rock n roll blues
the ecstatic sound rose up and filled the room
till it washed over me and made me brand new
and some days i like to spend my time all alone
blow through a deck of smokes and turned off my phone
go for a walk and maybe write myself a song
in my own company i always feel like i belong
and somedays i think about callin my dad
but then i worry it just might go bad
though i love him still he just ain't the same man
he said he was afraid ti fail to me
but i don't think he ever did till he gave up on bein the best that he can
when i was a kid i wanted to play with the boys
i had spidey action figures and dinosaur toys
they always told me that i wasn't allowed
but i never stopped trying i was too damn proud
and in middle school i always tried to look my best
and hoped to catch some boys attention
not sure why, they never gave me any before
guess that i was still sad about the dinosaurs
then in all my years from high school and on
i searched for validation in men who were wrong
they all tried to possess me and then they'd run away
guess they couldn't stand a woman with something to say
but it's ok cos i'm doing things my way
my way
i'm doing it my way

insensitive, oh so repetitive
the same old tune, always coming from you
and how old it is, the one sided victim schtick
you always point the blame, but never use your own name
you think you're something huh, you won't admit it but i see it in your walk
oh i could see it in your talk
but babe do i got some news for you
baby you aint shit
baby you aint shit
and you can suck my fucking clit
oh cos baby you ain't shit
and why would i, want to spend most of my time
listening to your silly rants
id rather be in your pants
woah oh oh
not trying to be rude
but i kinda thought you were the dude
i think i watched my porn when we were dating that back when i was single
hey hey, hey hey hey
and on dinner sates, you'd always sit on your phone with nothing to say
man how fucking lame, i think a brick wall would of made a better mate
and before ya left for work, you were always such a jerk
i'd try to kiss you goodbye
but you'd say i was taking up your time
never appreciated my art, insulted everything close to my heart
you just grinded me down into little pieces till i bowed
so how do you expect a woman to not act like a crazy bitch
when she's madly in love with you but you refuse to let her in
you were lazy, you didn't care
there was nothing real to share
what a sad and washed up shell
loving you made my life hell
so you can keep blaming me but wake up and smell the coffee
you were fucked up from the start cos you got a frozen heart
so yeah i am gonna be fine, but i think you're wasting your time
cos not feeling anything is no way to be alive
(this is a verse from Sonic Youth's "The Diamond Sea" it rang true to me at the time)
and time takes its crazy toll
mirror fallin off the wall
ya better look out for that looking glass girl
cos she's gonna take ya for a fall
