Dust In The Wind & Cheaters That Sin


I get the picture. I am not part of the mixture. I am a replaceble fixture. A sacred creature. The main feature. I know the things that are & the things that were. Is it really over? Are you sure? I don’t have a cure. My intentions pure. I am everything you thought. It was I you caught. It was you I fought. I had enough. I called your bluff. Graves is where death rots. Nothing is what I got. Love & happiness is what I sought. Lies & hatred, envy & greed, A love that’s dead. An unplanted seed. Sloath & pride. An unwed bride. Gluteny & lust is what you taught. So few know what I knew. It was suppose to be just us two. An opportunity you blew. I know I glow. Grass is what you mow. Find another hoe.
