You Can Never Be Wrong
you can never be wrong
so i can never be right
i cannot do this –
all and every night
i have a pain inside
and it grips me tight
couldn’t somebody look in
and shine a light?
what i lack in mental strength
i make up for in ink
because it is all about you
and world you live in
i can only light fires
and pour out the gin
the world is full of liars
and i feel sorry for him
you downturned his thoughts
you can never be wrong
so i can never be right
i wonder if anyone will be perfect
perfect enough to hold you tight?
