Sent Home Under Sirens
————————————
It takes time, years not days
To try and understand why things don’t go my way
At times, I regret the way I became
And how I let it get so bad that they forgot my name

Haven’t you heard? I’m a joke
A man without a hope
Am I supposed to sit this out?
Close my eyes? Have no doubts?

Now I have to, try protect that
Smallest bit of self respect
I’m still cursed to have

And you say that you know me like the back of your hand
Didn’t you hear me when I told you?
You do nothing but waste my time
And I told you but you’ve always known best
Carry me home under sirens to my last known address

I can’t stay, you don’t care
You must’ve seen it coming even from under there
And you’ll do what you do, friends round every night
I hope that you enjoy it but I’ll not be back next time
