Broken Record
You're a broken record with the shit you demand,
Same song plays every time we meet eye to eye
You cry and i sit and watch,
You lose your shit and i leave without making a single sound.
You talk shit about me to all of your friends while i live my life like i always did.
You never say sorry, i just pretend it's alright
Asking me for a second chance and i give it no questions asked,
Then the same movie you live by comes scene by scene;
You cry, i leave
You demand and i never give
I leave, you never learn
I never change and you never try to accept that.
I am me and i don’t mind you
You are you and you have always minded me,
And the same song plays again
But I’m so tired of this play.
Yet i always reserve for the front seat.
