Turn On Me
DYou can fake it for a while,
Bite your tongue and smile,
Like eveDry mother does an ugly child.
But thDe stars are leaking out,
Like spittle from a cloud,
Amassed Dresentment counting ounce and pound.
You'reC entertaining any doubt,
BecausDe youD had to know that I was fond of you,
DFond Cof Y-O-U,
ThoughD I knDew you masked your disdain.
CI canD see thDat change was just too hard for us,
DHard Cfor us.
You always had to hold the reigns,
But whCerCe CI'Cm CheCadCedC, youD just don't know the way.
DSo affections fade away,
And do adults just learn to play
The mostD ridiculous, repulsive games?
On theD faith of ruddy sons,
And the double-barreled guns,

And there's Da lot of hungry howlers in this one cell.
We’re taking it over,
Their Dbrittle, thorny stems,
They break before they bend,
And neitDher one of us is one of them.
And thCe tails will never mend,
‘CauDse yoDu had it in for me so long ago.

I doDn't kDnow why and I don't care,
You Ddon'tC hide me anymore,
If yDou'd Donly seen yourself hating me.

WhenD I'veD been so much more than fair.
But thCenC yCouC hCadC tCo ClayD those feelings bare,
One thCinCg CI CknCowC sCtiCll Dgot you scared,
YoCu're Dall that cold iron,
AnCd nDever Donce aired of our dead.

So ID tookD your lips at the time,
DAHHHHCHHHHHH
And toD chanDge like that is just so hard to do,
DHard Cto do.
Don'Dt letD it whip-crack your life,
And CboCw CouCt CfrComC tChe Dfight,
