Go, Get Out, Leave, Away With Ye
Should I never see you it would be too soon.
Have you ever learned to be polite enough to ask permission to use someone else's stuff?
Diluting the contents with water isn't going to hide your sin.
Please o please go away and stay.
Yet like a bad penny you keep coming back.
Wasn't it bad enough stealing my medication?
Oh that I could say these things without a house full of drama.
I need a vacation, I need out of here and when I return can you please be gone?
Yet I know it can't be so.
Please o please go away and stay.
If your mouth is moving, I know you are lying.
Even when there is no good reason to lie, you do.
Oh the pain you cause with all this increased stress.
Please o please go away and stay.
You are like nails across a chalkboard.
The nagging bark of a yapping dog.
The unyielding screams of a colicky babe.
There is no end in sight.
Please o please go away and stay.
Storm clouds on the horizon will bring unending tears of frustration.
Trapped within these four walls like a prisoner in my home.
Please o please go away and stay
