Get out of my mind and out of my soul

we parted ways many days ago

You called me names,

said I never cared

Now your dancing happy with another man

I’m making my way,

I’m down over here

Crying my tears,

I never thought were there

We didn’t do much time

with the things that we did

Running around with our secrets well hid

I tried to make an honest gal out of you

But hiding behind curtains

is all that you do.

Now don’t start hating me honey,

I know you liked the chase,

the paddles the ropes

and that special place

You wanted every second

that I could provide.

Look. I’m sorry honey

I couldn’t be what you want

Your 24/7 bitch to control.

I was willing to give you

all my heart and my soul

You only saw the chance

for a single goal

The poly life ain’t for ya,

you couldn’t balance the tide

Looking for something

no one tried to hide

And when you discovered

I wasn’t gonna bend or break

You found another player

to whip into shape.

I wish you the best,

no really I do

I hope he provides you

the same headaches you knew

Cuz the issues we have

weren’t caused by no man

But are the product

of your internal mayhem.

Until you find how

to tame your storm

There ain’t a single man

who will keep you warm.

Night after night

season after fight

you’ll find the rain is coming down

your smiles turn to frowns

cus nothing will keep you bright

until you learn to set your own light.
