Skeptical

Don't be so blatant
Your secret’s never safe,
in a sleepless town

A simple statement
That echoes off the pavement
May lack profoundness
But still hack the clouds... down

Guess you've be chasing
A liquor fuelled embrace
In a faceless crowd

Touch up your makeup
To synthesise your face
I can feel you scowling
but I still won't back.. down

You think your unconventional
Your so predictable  
Don't think your indispensable
Your still replaceable 
Your unintentional 
but so explainable
Thats why i'm skeptical

The wind blows out the flame
And leaves you startled, alone in the dark for days, back at the start again
So pray your fears away
Don't invest in the past
If there's debts to pay
from yesterday

You think your unconventional
Your so predictable  
Don't think your indispensable
Your still replaceable 
Your unintentional 
but so explainable
Thats why i'm skeptical

You seek an importance
That you don't deserve
I struggle to keep my distance 
You don't seem to concerned
So carry on walking
Right into the furnace
I can't knock your persistence sister
But you can't keep flicking your skirt up
It kicks me into the dirt

You think your unconventional
Your so predictable x2
Don't think your indispensable
Your still replaceable x2
