You're slinging around more bull
Than could be found at a rodeo
Each time I'm coerced and forced to look into
The eye of your portfolio
You can't handle holding a candle
And the demand will get the best of you
You're sizing me up, fear rising
And I'm realizing you're one messed up dude
Ungrateful, totally hateful
Here, take a plate full of your just desserts
No sir, you'd better cope or
I hope you know you're gonna wind up hurt
And every time you look around you
You won't like the world you see
If you think you've been missing something
Maybe missing's what you ought to be
You're throwing around a tantrum about
How no one thinks you bring the hits
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
But nobody else is buying it
You section your own rejection
At the detection of the faintest laugh
With every black and white memory
You're doing plenty to cut yourself in half
You battle onward and prattle
Try to lay flat all of the time you've spent
You're right, this isn't my fight
But I thought I might just put in my two cents
I think it's kind of funny that you've been so underhanded
But the renegade within you isn't being reprimanded
Maybe you should pack your suitcase but don't tell a single soul
That way I can't try to stop you and there's nothing I control
Don't you doubt a single minute that I'll take this lying down
I'll illuminate the stockyards and the seediest of towns
When I find you cowering silently you won't be but a ghost
And you'll about face to haunt the ones
You used to fear the most
I'm sorry you're not sorry
Enjoy your pity party
And once your burned bridges fall
Then you can go AWOL
