LYRIC FOR SALE

By Jimmy Larkin

Held my heart right in your hand
But you could never understand
Sorrow claimed your soul
You wouldn't fill the hole
Recklessly so loose
Broken by the news

The pressure of your space
The look on your face
The pleasure in your taste

I tried and tried so desperately
Raped by the pain of jealousy
Forced to watch when I'm not there
Taken for granted without a care
You'll never know what it's like
Been turning heads your whole life
I have forsaken thee
At the bridge of awakening

Did you turn around?
Quietly out loud
I'm glad that it was good
It's like you understood
You chose so selfishly
What the fuck was wrong with me?

The pressure of my waist
The look in your taste
The pleasure on your face

I tried and tried so desperately
Raped by the pain of jealousy
Forced to watch when I'm not there
Taken for granted without a care
You'll never know what it's like
Been turning heads your whole life
I have forsaken thee
At the bridge of awakening

Nothing ever made it easier
I just wanted to be with her
Watching them leave with her
It should've been me with her

All I wanted was a chance (Look at me)
You couldn't even give me that (Tears you see)
You always had other plans (Hear me plead)
My agony just laughed (As I bleed)

I tried and tried so desperately
Raped by the pain of jealousy
Forced to watch when I'm not there
Taken for granted without a care
You'll never know what it's like
Been turning heads your whole life
I have forsaken thee
At the bridge of awakening
