Averting Our Eyes - Prey for Nothing

I’m but a simple man

who fell as victim to the circumstances,

I was given with a shameful stain

to decorate my clear nuances

Do not treat on me, girl,

I was merely just a fiction,

I got nothing more to sell

for your selfish prediction

A dagger in the dark

worth dozens swords at dawn,

how can you ask forgiveness

when you can barely atone?

With every lie, your smile suffice

Averting Our Eyes, Averting Our Eyes

did you believe I am not that wise?

Averting Our Eyes, Averting Our Eyes

A pestilence of thoughts,

profanity so pure,

I saw from a far that you crave for scars

but I’m not the one to scar you

A dismal past and future

that you put down to display,

how everyone molested you,

even God shined you away

I’m but a simple man

but even I hold some few dirty tricks

and with my back against the wall

you can surely use a little fix

I’ve gone against your wills,

I’ve turn the other chick,

this old dog has finally

learn a damn new trick

With every lie, your smile suffice

Averting Our Eyes, Averting Our Eyes

did you believe I am not that wise?
