Just because I thought
Just because I thought . . .
was the futherest from the truth
I dedicated all my energies
to the wasting of my youth
Here's to love and family
and all my shady friends
That leave me cold and lonely
Was it worth it in the end
Bitter is as bitter does
The cup will measure up
Bitterness comes from a root
Buried deep inside the gut
Sure I have my memories made
They never let me sleep
I twist them into my dreams
the ones I never keep
The Indians left behind the old ones
who could not match their step
Perhaps it was kinder still
than prolonging the agony of their death
Whose bones I walk upon I will never know
Just know it's getting harder
to get off my *** and go
