I don't know why
you always try
to place the blame
on someone else
pointing the finger
like it's a loaded gun
and you say
it's all
in fun

well put on your fancy sneakers
'cause you're gonna be
running for your life
hurting too much
and you know now
that we have all
had enough
and i won't cry
for you
and they'll be laughing
at you

get up from that stench
that you have created
for yourself
better put yourself
in a higher gear
lesson from the streets
i have exposed all
of your fears
now you are
drowning in
someone elses tears
and i am not being crude
when i tell you
that i don't really care
they will see you
after dark
you will be running scared
acounting for your sin again
i know that you
will never win
you have been named
the unforgiven

Julie, this one is great. . . I love the line:

"well, put on your fancy sneakers
'cause you're gonna be
running for your life"

Excellent. . .

I think I have made these same feelings known to my other half just last evening, when he stopped by to torment me once again. How one can give up a decent life and choose to be in the gutter instead, I will never know, but that is where he shall forever be now to me. If this is real for you, I certainly understand.

Yes this is certainly powerful. I'm in the process of trying and I do stress trying, to forgive the ex love of my life and I'm finding it very difficult to let go of the pain. My heart goes out to you. Tessa
