Take What I Need
A little distance now is all that I need
To soften a blow, take sting from the reed
Name the lie bullshit, let it lay where it may
Take what I need and forget yesterday
------------------------------------------------
Power in knowing your plan to mislead
Not a twit, not a twat, your usual breed
Count me out, no member of that cache
Take what I need and forget yesterday
--------------------------------------------------
My gut is the calculator, my trust deed
The balance a guide I always pay heed
More bad than good sum your dossier
Take what I need and forget yesterday
--------------------------------------------------
I learned from you, my ego I’ll feed
Teasing the game that I never concede
Color you blue, no, I won’t play
Take what I need and forget yesterday
--------------------------------------------------
Nothing lost, no investment to secede
Harem to entice your dance to proceed
The ball and chain from which you stray
Take what I need and forget yesterday
--------------------------------------------------
Knowing you has sown the seed
Protect my heart so not to bleed
Cross the road, become the prey
Take what I need and forget yesterday
--------------------------------------------------
