change

It's not righteous
It may not even be true
but I can only do what I know
and I don't know you

so step aside my friend
the seas of change will shift
and when we push away
the severing is swift

i will not expose anyone
to more than seems fair
theres no point in knowing
what will never be there

so take your hurricane
land on someone else's shore
someone who can give it all
someone looking for a whore

it's not righteous
it may not even be true
we all sell pieces of ourselves
I am no better than you

i know that i've found
something worth saying
there is no game you
can name worth playing

goodbye to you
is all i have to say
you picked the wrong one
on the wrong day

there are some who
get several chances
but your nine lives
have worn out

if you know why
your past advances
were put down before
you know what it's about

its being sick of the
stupid games
sick of the joke
of the double name

i am myself
theres no one but me
but i have friends
who help me see

that i may not be righteous
i may not even always be true
but i am always doing
the best i can do
