Reciprocity

I can tell he wants me

to show him around,

take him out and show

how him how I get down.

He wants me to smile but

my face is stuck in a frown.

 

Boy didn’t you notice

when I tried taking you out on the town?

When we rode with my girl C,

you brought your boy V

Then the time I got into a fight that

nobody even got to see

My girl didn’t like you

I wonder, how could that be??

 

Once upon a time

you were down

to do anything.

Rain or shine.

Doesn’t matter what we do

as long as youre mine.

Lately it feels like youre

wasting my time.

Feels like a one way street.

All of a sudden you

don’t make me feel like a treat

 

You see I’ve

Taken you out

You know the

life I’m about.

Yet we still

scream and shout

cause now we never

seem to get out

At least not enough

I know at the moment

Life feels a bit rough

But we can’t be consumed

Part of us died

Let it be exhumed

Dust off our shoulders

and hit resume

Let’s start living

& forgiving

Then start stacking up it

to the ceiling

I thought you were my back up

But it’s me that you’re killing

 

We don’t need to go hard

or spend money at the bar

We don’t even need to go far

Let’s go to guitar center

and pretend to be stars

 

Im sorry for my ****** mood

But if you don’t try

We’re *******
