Slander - Lyrics by 98 Mute


Lyrics

Maybe i shouldn't have said it of course
I was too quick to judge
Words swiftly spoken may be unrefined
I didn't know optimism was a crime
Hey i have got enough problems
Don't need extra baggage from you pointless games and taxing headtrips unfortunate side effects of your friendship
I may have slipped won't happen again my legs are beneath me now
For the last time cut down from behind
I will be ready next time
It's no big deal
I've gotten used to being let down
I just didn't think that
I would ever be let down by you
Your antics are always expected
Passed off as being your nature
Get away with murder ¡®cause you're just being you
A modern day version of shakespeare's licensed fool
Not to say that i'm not guilty
Emotions get the best of me
Quick to fight a nasty habit
Can't keep my cool if i never had it
I had so much faith in you ¡®til i saw your true colors bleeding through
You're a joke that i don't get with a punchline
I'm trying hard to forget
I don't want to carry the burden
Of holding this grudge any longer
What to do, do i made amends?
Or discard this joker from my deck of friends?
Slander you said it i heard it
But you know i never deserved it
So locked to you the world in my head i know i should have never let you in
