Out of a Crowd



I wouldn’t choose you today if I had to.

Out of a crowd, or all alone.

this makes me want to die

Maybe only to save you from some something.                                                                

Not for the old, not for the new if I had to.

this teaches me to lie  

It’s sad and it’s true.


but only to get by  

Because there’s not much else to do.

no more asking why

With you.
