DIRTY LAUNDRY :: 2010

I have forgotten what you meant to me
You are stripped from my vocabulary
Your name will never cross my lips again
I made that covenant deep inside of me
I just took you outta my life
Just like a bag of fucking dirty laundry

Your attention was a pariah
Sucking the very life from me
Distorting my values
And undermining my integrity
I let you come back too many times
And get the best of me
Falling back into your arms
Was like falling into a world of anxiety

I don't think you’re a good person
I think you’re driven by selfish intent
Your life carries a dark cloud
That now hangs over every moment we spent
This love was one that I imagined
This bond something I somehow dreamt
Now your actions are so transparent
An angry fool can now see what they meant

The names I had for you
Will never be spoken
Because they were voiced
Out of love for your attention
This time you have severed
What ever held me back
It's now a floodgate opened
To fuck up your need for retention

A kiss would be dismal
A fuck would be certifiably insane
To smell you on my skin
As foul as the stench
From that street drain
I just walked over
And walked away
From your existence
Who you are
Is no longer relevant
And has no remaining interest
