change

 the more things change, the more they stay the same…

now you say youve changed 

that you have something to prove

that your taking responsibility for the blame

even though it was i that played the fool

i tell you that ive heard these lines before

and try to explain that my belief in you this time is not assured 

i simply cant take your word without sight

without proof to behold, i very well cant take on that plight

its a great burden just to be your friend

whether it be just talking as you say

when in fact your just reeling me in

what is it about this to you that doesnt seem right

can you not see the redundancy of your offer

or were you not moved

have these past few months meant nothing to you

you say it was hell

you said you were on the edge of death 

and yet you sit here and in that same span of breath

you go back

back on your words

contradiction how contrary

ive seen this somewhere before

the look in your eyes, the tone in your voice

the obviously painful fact that you seem to have no choice

atleast that what you say when all the chips are down

change has come and you can turn this back around

and again i sit

listening as you shovel bullshit

in this seemingly neverending hole

im realizing now that this change you want is only for people that have a soul
