Toxic Wine

I caught you in a lie again

Does the leopard ever change?

Holding on but what’s my gain?

Letting go is so much pain

_

Got on my knees and prayed

In the wilderness, I need a way

My heart’s a desert, it needs some rain

Why does the good person get betrayed?

_

Got on my knees and prayed

For some wisdom in this perplexed state

The voice calling me a hypocrite came

Saying everyone lies all the same

_

There was no voice, no voice, mate

It was me making excuses for your mistakes

You think the aches might reset my brain

Just a minute, I am back on the train

_

She’s in a cage, she’s in bondage

She is a slave that’s addicted to her chains

If you set her loose, she’ll return too soon

She’s a reader scared to turn another page

_

She caught him in a lie again like always

But the toxic wine is forever her favourite
