(Spilling guts)

Takes some time
To waste a guy
Must be mad
Ok
A smoldering burn
Must be bad
Cut deep
And festering day by day

No one wants a free-for-all
Just a chance
A break
A lift to climb on a back
Tough luck
A pebble short of quit

Only those that get into the way

Way way back
Before the thumb
Was a way
A path
A reckoning
Like a catch
Sewn deep
And gesturing day by day

Take a guy
An everyman
Must be glad
Well off
A gentle ease
Underneath
A film
That’s cracking bit by bit

Only those that get into the way
That’s that
Or maybe keep in mind
Take the hit or take the fall
Fall back
