Lament

4.12.19

Verse 1
Uh oh, here I go
Falling, but you never asked me (once again)
I play the fool so well
Too late, can’t wait
For you not to catch me (who’s surprised?)
My fault, I won’t raise hell
Big deal, shape up
Should’ve seen this coming (check your math)
You plus me don’t equal squat

What luck, I’m stuck
Starved for your affection (shut your mouth)
This cross I bear, it rots

Chorus
I’m not looking for no absolution
‘Cause I designed this mess
And I don’t want to test your resolution
So if I leave, that might be best
I can catch orchestrate my own demise 

Don’t worry, I’ll be fine

Verse 2
Strike one, strike two
Don’t you see the pattern (tell the truth)
Is ignorance that bliss?
I growl, feral now
Much more beast than human (watch the fangs)
This target, I wouldn’t miss

History so familiar
Have we done this before? (same old same)
I feel you like an echo
Mistake or decision?
Love just ain’t meant for ya (well, oh well)
I’m begging, please let go

Chorus
I’m not looking for no absolution
‘Cause I designed this mess
And I don’t mean to test your resolution
So if I leave, that might be best
I can orchestrate my own demise
Don’t worry, I’ll be fine

Don’t worry, I’ll be fine

Bridge

You should’ve seen this coming 

Should’ve started running, gunning

For the mountains

Never started loving, loving

Should’ve seen this coming

Should’ve scattered, ducking, covering

Fleeing from that tower

Never started loving, loving

Chorus
I’m not looking for no absolution
Cause I designed this mess
And I don’t mean to test your resolution
So if I leave, that might be best
I can orchestrate my own demise
But don’t worry, I’ll be fine

Don’t worry, I’ll be fine
