I'm going to dress up tonight

I'll look real pretty for i don't know who

I'll find my own way around this great big city

And I'll sit at a bar and im gonna have a drink



I'll leave you to revel in your youthful yearnings

I know you like to visit them from time to time

Like a theif I steal the words you write to her

I take them to my heart and I wish them to be mine



But this is nothing

But it ain't nothing

Oh this is nothin new

But it aint nothin



You long for sweetness

Does mine make you sickly

Or maybe I no longer have the sweetness you require

There's nothing sweet about a heart so embittered

It;s ugly and it's cold and tonight it's out for hire



This is nothing new

But it ain't nothing her



We live through this day after day

Complacency's a curse

But you just can't escape it

I've arrived at a place where my tolerance gave way

And i struggle to hold my head up high
