Never Again or Forever

[Verse 1]
My ramshackled mind searched out old Jerome
I said my house is falling in, it used to be a home
He said I told you once, I'll tell it to you twice
She's got to quit or quench her thirst for that poison paradise

[Chorus]
She's got to choose never again or forever
She's got to let it break at the ends or say forever
But I feel so dark inside, I'm clinging to the smallest light
And I can't hang on, no I can't hang on

[Verse 2]
It was harvest at the Hazletown Farm and in the fields we'd meet
I could feel the pods and know the peas inside were sweet
But soon I saw her deceptions for the little lies they were
When I was making all my plans, dependent upon her

[Chorus]
She's got to choose never again or forever
She's got to let it break at the ends or say forever
But I feel so dark inside, I'm clinging to the smallest light
And I can't hang on, no I can't hang on

[Bridge]
Now I don't know what draws the bee into the flower
But she's the blackest rose
I've got a hard time seeing through the clouds
That hang on her wherever she goes

[Verse 3]
A poison paradise and served up with a twist
Buy hell in a bottle, it's right there on the ingredients list
But I can't talk anymore and I can't walk away
I swore my ultimatum and I fear that it's too late

[Chorus]
She's got to choose never again or forever
She's got to let it break at the ends or say forever
But I feel so dark inside, I'm clinging to the smallest light
And I can't hang on, no I can't hang on

[Outro]
I can't hang on, no I can't hang on
