Some might say it's overrated
Staring at their shoes
Your arrows don't have poison
But they bruise
I can't make peace with you
All my heart is on these pages
Open to abuse
I should try to be dishonest
But I lose
I can't make peace with you
Angry eyes there's poison in the ink
You've got so much time to think about it
Try to put your finger on it
Figure out what's right for me and mine
Expletives and explanations
Fade bruise-colored blue
A thicker skin develops on the wound
I won't change it for you
Angry eyes there's poison in the ink
You've got so much time to think about it
Try to put your finger on it
Figure out what's right for me and mine
Some might say it's overrated
Staring at their shoes
Your arrows don't have poison
But they bruise
It's never been for you
I'm just telling the truth
