EAR TO THE GROUND
"What is told in the ear of a man is often heard 100 miles away." Chinese Proverb
You keep running around, all over town
Not caring how it looks, or how it sounds
I deal with the stares, the gossip, and the laughs
You think I’m unaware, but you’d be wrong
I’m keeping my ear to the ground
Baby, you’re in surround sound
Feeling like a fool, here in the dark
Knowing you’re with him, again
Thinking that I’ll never know
Whose bed you’re in
Honey, you’d be wrong
I’m keeping my ear to the ground
Baby, you’re in surround sound
Your cheating is getting old, my heart is growing cold
Each and every night, I wait here all alone
You think I’ll always be waiting, here at home
Your fool to humiliate, cheat on, and stone
But honey, you’d be dead wrong
I’m packing, leaving, I’m gone
Baby, you’re in surround sound
You’re in surround sound
I’m leaving
I’m gone
This poem somehow become country music sounding lyrics and I am not really into most country music. But who knows how poetry accidents actually happen.
