La Matanza

I see you standing over there alone

Crying on the telephone

I'm sure its safe to say you've seen your better days...

You must have heard what everyone said

But don't you let it go to your head

The backseat is just a luxury you could not afford

Because everyone has figured you out...

So think before you open your mouth...

The next words you say could incriminate & leave a chance for them to burn you at the stake
So sit back and relax, chew up the scenery

Let the people see what you wanted them to believe

Because I don't care if you sink or if your ship wrecks

I will only assume it was because of me...

So don't hold your breath...

(An apology is not something I would expect)

Don't take that step

(Don't cross that line there might not be anything left)

You might lower your standards for a night or two

Your best excuse is there was nothing left to do

You were so desperate and dried out that one kiss is all it took to ignite the fuse...
Now that I've got your attention

With a simple slide of hand and the honest intention to

To make you fall

Here's to the idea of living through it all...

SO QUIET NOW...

DON'T SAY A WORD...

This will all be over soon if I don't get my medicine

Then you can phone the doctor and tell him what a mess I've been....

As you wake up on the bathroom floor nothing could've mattered more than finding your way back home...

So brush your knees and quietly leave, don't promise me you won't promise me anything..

(an apology is not something I would accept) expect...

AN APOLOGY IS NOT SOMETHING I COULD DO
