Chris Pureka - Cynical Lyrics
Well you knew me pretty wellbut I never let you see my dark sideso it's perfectly appropriatethat I'm careening down the highwayscreaming at the top of my lungspraying for the courage to do something recklesswell a short hiatus of perceived blissI guess it's back to courting the grey cloud I used to lovebut you don't deserve the satisfactionof being the one who pushed me over the edgeso tone it down a notchjust a six-pack and some cigarettesand I'm stumbling in the street looking something pitifullike the old cat you put out she looked bewilderedfor a while but she's getting meaner by the minutemaybe I'm just angryfor the love songs you murdered mid-verseor maybe I'm just angry'cause it all fell down for you firstbecause it all fell down for you firstwell would it all be so easyif you had to look me straight in the eyeif I were there to contradictall the pretty stories you tell to justify yourself?well now I find it hard to believeyou don't have a thing to say to meyou don't write, you don't callyou're just getting cruel and we're both getting pettyI want my twenty bucks and my black shirtoh you better be happy, you better be happywell maybe I'm just angryfor these battered, tainted memoriesor maybe I'm just angrybecause now you feel so freeI guess now you feel so freeI guess now you feel so...well if you think too big or you think too smallit'll lead you down the same roadyou'll figure out life rewards the worst in usyeah you can take and take and take some moreand you'll never get what you deservethis is me at my most cynicalnow this is me at my most cynicaland I'm getting meaner by the minuteI said I'm getting meaner by the minute...well you knew me pretty wellbut I never let you see my dark side
