You Know Who It's For

Raindrops fall off the silver gate
I feel your stare behind the wheel
You stop and wait impatiently
For me to smile and wave and welcome you

A week is up and you're back home
Did they praise you for your lies?
Or have you decided to play fair?
Too bad i've grown old to your stories this time

I've got no reason to be sad
Sometimes we all have it bad
The places you've gone and seen
Can't they help prove anything?
You've got your smile upside down
It's not like I haven't been around
You've got no reason to be sad
So, please stop making me look bad

Gift wrappers fill up the space
There's plenty for a garage sale
Let the new and pricey play stand-in
While you leave, hoping you've bought my understanding

Phone calls they come to let me know
That you're much happier where you are
Pictures of days that have gone by
Showing what I've missed and opening up old scars

I've got no reason to be sad
Sometimes we all have it bad
The places you've gone and seen
Can't they help prove anything?
You've got your smile upside down
It's not like I haven't been around
You've got no reason to be sad
So, please stop making me look bad

Bad, you've been bad
Wanting more even though you've got all
Bloody, bloody hell
Why didn't i say goodbye when you cried the first time

So, I've got no reason to be sad
Sometimes we all have it bad
People are bound to made mistakes
It's crystal how I'm the joy you faked
Still got my smile upside down
Though I'm a bit glad i have you around
I've got no reason to be sad
It's too much fun making you look bad


A song for someone who's precious to me. Who loves me but hurts me because that's how and who they are.
