You've roamed the streets
Along it's unpleasantries
Scratched the surface
Of indignity
And moved on

I have unintencionally
Put you in danger
I've been to you
A dog in the manger
Depriving you of warmth

I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help

When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell

You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world

But you insist on me
For God knows what reason

You've been seen
Confessing yourself to some priest
Cleansing yourself 
From the beast
That resides within you

And I, I've accepted
All in me
The deep end of my 
Misanthropy
Seems innefable

I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help

When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell

You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world

But you insist on me
For God knows what reason

Beware
And be suspecting
Of all the men
Misdirecting
Your eyes from the grim actuality

I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help

When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell

You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world

But you insist on me
For God knows what reason
