Though I might not stand beside you you’re gonna know where I stand
If I’m reaching out to touch you, you can safely take my hand
Of all the things that I could say to you I’d say them to your face
But you think you’ve got me in my place
Stacking up delusions will they ever tumble down
Clinging to the anger of the whisper of a truth unfound
So I’m sleeping somewhere silently
Someone’s slinging mud again
Never even opened my mouth to say a word about it all
Before I’m asked to leave again
Well you can wallow in your squalor just to throw it all my way
But I’m sure we can find a better place to play
Staking up defences one bullet at a time
Looking for distractions from those actions that were never mine
They were yours not mine
I’ll be heading for the six bar jail but who’s doing time?
