There's A Brand New Life
A thief
I've never been
deceit
is not my game
through the weeks
the months and days
all of me
is what I gave .
So yes
I'm back to lonely
no guess
you didn't know me
this mess
my home , you told me
classless
with cheap things only .
As your life
hung in the balance
in times
of total madness
'twas I
fought for your solace
I'd die
for you I promised .
Every inch
and every ounze
I was pinched
and then dried out
I welcomed you in
and made all of mine ours
even one of my kids
would pick you some flowers .
Was I so bad
to you at all
you know in that
two can play ball
to tell a lie
big or small
or return some fight
doesn't mean I should fall .
If I'm wrong , you're right
don't be appauled
with my hands held high
I will take all
without a light in sight
all vision is poor
there's a brandnew life
who needs that bit more .
