I always thought you were naïve,
That there were some things you didn’t
know.
But there’s a spark of intellect in those
dark eyes.
Some things you didn’t show.
I thought you were lying
When you said that you’ve been there
before.
I swear you must have been joking
You say you’ve seen it all and more.
And there were many times I thought you
would cry.
There were many times I asked myself why.
Why I should be towing you around the way I
do.
Why it’s always me who wipes the shit from
your shoes.
I always thought you were a little strange,
There were some things that you already
knew.
Laying my cards on the table for so long
While why resentment only grew and
grew.
I’m getting so tired of finding excuses,
I’m getting so tired of only finding
pain.
The more you talk about your state of
perfection,
The sooner I tend to think I’m insane.
And there were many times where I was cold
as ice.
There were many times I just didn’t want to
roll the dice.
To only have it come up so that you win.
It’s time you stood on your feet; learned
how to swim.
You can talk for hours my friend.
You can only talk for so long until the
end…
You know I always wondered what would
become of you
If I only had the nerve to let you go.
You’re still as naive as the day we met,
Though the naivety doesn’t really
show.
You may have walked a mile in my shoes,
But it was my apathy that gave you
wings.
You may have been the one singing my blues,
But in the end I’m the one who’s saving
you…
