I was thinking 'bout the other night
Can't say that what you did was right
Thought I'd found a true friend in you
Thank you for showing me where that road was headed to
I won't take this nonsense anymore
All of your lies have been unraveled
underneath this midnight sky... tell me why
All of your sweet words of advice
were only used to cure your vices...
Pretty impressive

it's easy to wake up in the morning,
put on the facade everyone recognizes -
go forth into the world and play your cards
as a true man, in high-roller fashion.
but alas! when you retire for the evening
and dispose of the remnants of the everyday world,
wipe off your countenance with a cold, rough cloth
the true person - the dirty weak one - is exposed to the mirror
and your visage should shatter the glass before you...
maybe that will let you see your ugliness.

with all the pollution in the world
I do believe your windows could use some Windex.
though your views are dusty and probably long-tainted,
it would do everyone some good
to see a little spic-n-span.

if only I had the quick tongue that would produce words
before my mind would quiet them
if only I had the steady heart that would not quiver
long enough for me to catch my breath
if only I had the eyes to see he wants nothing to do with me.
