Broke (en)
It's All True-Ish
cigarettes
and sipping jack
never really were my thing
givin' idle threats
and talking smack
so we remember what you think
spinning thoughts around
in lost and found
throwing what's left over
down the sink
I think
I need
to leave this town
because this thing we're doing
stinks
you love
lookin down on me
reminding me
that I am foolish
you won't admit that's
what you said
but we all know it's kinda
true-ish
can't be held
to circumstance
leaving an out
for unseen plot twists
always the same ol
song and dance
shots of fifths'
and unnamed misfits
If you really wanted to
then, I know
that you would do it
this non committal
attitude
is skewed
and always leaves me
feeling stupid
if you want
to find an out
nothing and no one
holds you
to it
maybe
it's you
that all along
can't admit
it's you that
blew it
save your
watered down excuses
for the jack there
in your coke
you'll never know
what truth is
cuz your moral compass
has been broke (en)
