lyrics

5) The Veneer
Beat produced by JonAlexi.

C:
You two don't know what the other is thinking
You two don't know how the other is living
You two batter at each others walls in hate
Then you're both surprised when the dam breaks
You two don't know each other and you never did
You two don't love each other and you never did
Stuck together like used gum and a desk
And you wonder why there's such unrest

V1:
Seems as though it was a shock to you only
But even so you were a rock when she said she was lonely
You never cared about the plots of her mourning
And you never gave a thought to what she wanted

But ignorance takes two as with love and loss
And you never seemed to think of him a lot
When you were pickin' at him like a rare rock
And you were shocked when he finally broke the door off

it's fucking hinges while telling you to stop
And when you fought you thought that it meant a lot
But you wrought a hell that was all for naught
And you tried to act like he had you caught

but all that you fuckin' brushed off
When I brought it up, and I'm at a loss
As to how you think it's a far toss
To think you yourself wrought your own divorce

Listen, <C>

V2:
You think it's unfair for me to be mad?
Woman, don't you dare, I got a right to be mad
You really had me scared to be alone with dad
Peelin' back the layers is leaves me fuckin' sad

You tried to drag me with you, I felt unsafe
I cried my fucking eyes out, thought I had no place
Came time, dad put all his feelings on display
And I realized what you were tellin' me was a mistake

And I caught it. You tried to pluck me off of the vine
And I fought it. Leaven' home before my fuckin' time
But first I bought it without even a question why
Because I thought at firs that you were right

But take another fuckin' look, we're doin' fine
And dad is holdin' up, he'd never hurt a fly
So I don't fuckin' understand why you'd decide
He'd ever hurt me, bitch, he hasn't even tried

So here's what I decide: <C>
