Oh my, Michael
You know its safe to say
Things have never been the same since that fateful day
When I left you for the Hill, where you met me halfway
Oh my lord, you were shaking like a leaf
Scars upon your arms from the temporary relief
The time had come for goodbyes, bittersweet
All my friends had all said to me
He’s a fixture in the mixture with a darkness underneath
Swagger in your steps, stains upon your teeth
Softly spoken, sung like a lion
Played the song for me in the living room, I’m crying
Cause’ I knew that deep inside, baby I’ve been lying
That unspoken dream that keeps you in the black
The kind that gives you one taste and never gives it back
Following you don the alley for a bag
Pulled up and pushed it back down
Walk the streets in disbelief at the freaks in this town
But you and I are different, here on hollowed ground
