Sleep Talkin

Tossed around and abandoned without even a care, Although I have to say it feels good with the air in my hair. Nothing is withstanding, pure punishment is all, And if I take another sleeping pill I swear I'm gonna fall. Just give me one more shot or two and I'll be ready to go, Like lit shot rocket I'm just a'lookin' to explode. Cupid keeps on knockin' on my door don't he know that I'm not home? 'Cause I've been cleaning this here gun evertime I'm left alone. The gun might end the pain and the gin will end the sadness, And I'm not one to complain but I can't seem to stand this madness. Love is not a figment or a dream that I have made up in my mind, But the sayings ringing true love, 'true love is hard to find'. Love can **** you sideways but lovers rarely do, Take it from me love, love won't always see you through. Honesty is Honestly never truly real, Honesty will Honestly not work into the deal, Truth is truly subtle you can see it in the eyes, But no man can trust a woman and no girl can trust a guy. I sit down here and ponder of the bad that's yet to come, I sit here with my whiskey and a half full cup of rum. Jim and Jack they know me, oh they know me very well, And they know just how to break me from this god forsaken shell. One thing that I can do is sit and write a decent song, That wouldn't even get a glance, i know you wouldn't sing along. That wouldn't hurt my soul, might just slow my self-esteem, It might just make me shield my eyes from another woman's gleam. You can stop with all the hearts, I won't be buyin any chocolates, I've torn myself apart I mean I swear I've almost lost it. Got me pullin' out my hair with all of your commercial dreams, I can't be stuffed with your demands they got me burstin at the seems. Looks like I'll drink myself to sleep again, hope the pain just goes away, Hope to lose all my bad memories that i know will always stay.
