Politix

歌詞

He's off again New blood is eating out his palm again Mixed up in metaphors and confidence Reading the room is like a party trick And then he's on his way out Yeah, he's on his way out It's all pretend He makes a fuss and then he finds the next He pops a pill and takes the side effects Talks in a circle 'till I'm two percent And then he's on the way out Am I wrong? To think that I could be the one To think I might be onto something I gave your words all the weight in the world And now I don't know who to trust I did my best to hear you out And now I'm drowning in the doubt I gave you every piece of my love Oh, will it ever be enough? Oh, Mister On The Fence That's what they call him down in Oregon He trust fund babies and the college kids Gaslight the room and call it common sense (It's obvious) It's politix I guess I never was supposed to win My pretty little bones were never made for it I could take a bite, I couldn't stomach it I wish that I'd have known it before Am I wrong? To think that I could be the one To think I might be onto something I gave your words all the weight in the world And now I don't know who to trust I did my best to hear you out And now I'm drowning in the doubt I gave you every piece of my love Oh, will it ever be enough? I gave you every word that I put on the page I gave you every smile on a tired face I gave you every dream I was dreaming about You only gave me reasons to doubt myself And even when it works, yeah, it's never enough And even when it hurts, you say "toughen up" I bet you when it's good, you'll be there in the frame And when you see it crash, you'll be out of state I can't play again, I never win My cynicism is kicking in I can't be to blame, walls closing in It's imminent, I'm over it
