slippery dips

Fuck slippery dips, fuck licketty splits, let's quit trading niceties, I知 sick of this shit.
I tried to be nice to you, and share all my life with you
You knew how to keep me down, even when you weren't trying to.

You know that I知 sensitive, and that's why this sentence is
So much more difficult, because you appear senseless
Admitting you've hurt me's not something that's easy
But your complete lack of acknowledgement doesn't appease me

It actually serves to make me feel even worse
So I知 reasserting that hurt..... At where it's deserved
If you don't find intentionally hurting me cruel
I値l go get my jerry can and give you more fuel

The only difference is, the-diff-er-ence-s in
Our diff-er-ence-s - where do I begin?
I知 upfront and forthright, I知 a gun at a swordfight
I知 dim lit, but I burn bright, I知 fucked up but I知 alright
You seal in feelings, that's your way of dealing
I do what I know - this vent is my healing

If it's pushing our friendship, then perhaps we should end it
Because I deserve more respect than what I知 currently getting.
So if I知 asking too much of you, then next time something's up with you -
I値l repay the favor, "yeah sorry, but fuck you too!"

Tell me simply and seamlessly, what it is that you need from me
"Nothing" - well nothing's something I can do easily.
I can sit here and ignore you, but I do implore you
To continue to show me the reasons why it is I deplore you.
So if you'd like to hurt me, then here is my heart
Placed conveniently on my sleeve if you'd like to tear it apart.

The question in this sentence is will I learn my lesson?
Is it better to be an open book? Or just to go to confession?
See, I can see clear when the time's right - which seems to be hindsight
In my infinite wisdom, I see my wisdom is finite.
And with that finite wisdom, I do allow visions,
To stab me in my eyes, like precision incisions.

But I値l still fucking stand up, even if it means I end up
Flat on my arse and in need of a hand up.
So back to my point - who knows where I left it
Come have a crack - my defense's strength is deceptive
Bring out your attack, I値l be surprisingly receptive.
