lyrics

Under the tree
That you admired
A parachute of gold
A life inspired
You are the opposite of me
But I think we share the same dream

2 games were picked
Only one was played
You read me the rules
I sat in a haze
You see all of my mistakes
Should I know what I need to change?

Just give me a beat
A little weed
And my whiskey neat
Ill save you a seat
You don’t have to dress up fancy
No
I won’t be your foe, I can be your friend
You know I got you, I got you, I got you till the end
And when no one will listen and you aint being heard
You can count on me baby, to give you
The last word

Ironic it was
Isolation
Well I know it so well
Its my occupation
And I know a heavy heart won’t charm you
And I know my planned attack won’t disarm you

You were 5 steps ahead
You had me figured out
You saw all of my motives
You were taking me down

Give me a beat
A little weed
And my whiskey neat
Ill save you a seat
You don’t have to dress up fancy
No
I won’t be your foe, I can be your friend
You know I got you, I got you, I got you till the end
And when no one will listen and you aint being heard
You can count on me baby, to give you
The last word

And when no one will listen and you’re getting concerned
You can count on me baby I could always return

But I guess thats it
Just one last little quip
If you never listen
You’ll never be heard
But you’ll always have
The last word
