A War On Two Fronts
Looking back now it was me against the world
no one In my corner no one in my field
too much too fast and I stood still
helpless to slaughter without a shield
it was me and the elements alone in developments
and I stood firm though trampled by elephants
and though missed then I now assess evidence
verify my friends and verify the blunts
who was on my side and who sucker punched
and I’m left gutted horrified and stunned
cus I’ve got nothing left all was dumped
out numbered one way out numbered two
no one to turn too what did I do
I didn’t break down
til the breakdowns removed
mentally shattered emotionally reaching
I had not mattered though I was weeping
my friends weren’t friends and it’s a scary thought
two faced too show it the reason or fault
as I was targeted without respect
no one caring who would detect
Dom was saying I stole his bike
an insight reveals inside his mind
he was nasty I was kind
mind overrun therefore blind
all my effort went into work
an eye on Sarah with all her nerve
foresee her thirsty plans to hurt
a game that I played carefully
aware there’s no one there for me
one sided plots unfairly
bettering yet wearing me
so work was hard work
but I held the Earth
Sarah shooting air as i swerved
didn’t think I had to watch my mates
and couldn’t battle on two fronts
so work was where I did concentrate
I realise now who I should have thumped
that boy was just two faced
On the day I left that job he said I did it for attention
I went through hell and got the sack and no one payed attention
I swear that boy’s bipolar,
paranoia in the rest as they’re slower
It’s over mate nice to know ya
