i knew
lucky enough to have done the wrong things at the right time
i knew what was happening the whole time
i knew what was gonna happen next time
i knew how to prevent it the whole time
i just didn't know how to tell it to you
we were speaking different languages
and i knew you could never come to me
so i sat patiently
on stolen time
that the victims waisted hastily
but i am what i am
maybe one day she'll look to see
you see right now i can't
the light is blinding forever binding me
bleeding from wherever you can stab a kife in me
the forgotten
the lost causes
each and every one
one of my promices
and i don't often promise this
but you pre madonas wanted this
i offered a sort of truce with my truth
toned down my whole vocabulary
fuck you
now i insist upon instigating you
because my whole life felt more like segregation
sitting in the back of a bad bus ride
and i say that with no hesitation
no hard r's
