If you’re looking for that than fair enough
But I’m not made of it, I’m made of tougher stuff
Fair enough, if you’re searching for doormat
But I ain’t made of that
Silence has a brilliant appeal right now
Because everything my tongue expunges
Gets taken the wrong route
If I was wanting to dish out insult
I’d be direct with you
You don’t need to unriddle my tone
Or recognise pattern in behaviour
Kiss my lips and pick what poison
You extract from the flavour
You don’t like my excitement
But I’m indicted for indifference
Just so short sighted and listless
I’m embarrassed when you do listen
Because I know you won’t get me
Walked every road as your ego I stroked
Until my own fire was petrol flooded and poked
And that’s the path it’s set me
The difference is she still digs desperately
For the adoration he promised
So helpful and polite and modest
I tried that approach, encroached doormat
Still got slapped and lost it
If you want to go to war
I have primed my battalion
And if you want someone more like her
I can introduce a million
The servitude probably feels brilliant
But no matter what a woman does for a man
Those high expectations stay resilient
The goal post finds new plot
Gets bored too often
And gentle push becomes militant
But I’m not trying to be gentle anymore
I’m going for complete ruination
Because if you thought you’d struck gold
With a girl like her
You were mistaken
I don’t wanna fight darling, not again
Waste a nice day on a strop
Spoil a good crop with bad intention
Can’t be bothered with the rehash
The venom that we match
The sweet splash that the laps
Of swinging attack hatch
Let’s be civil, meet in the middle
Don’t need to swan our bitter flash
Then you do something interesting
Something that’s
Got right under my skin, actually
You’re fucking annoying
I mean that factually
Biggest piss boiler this side of the Thames
Or even nationally
I was trying to be forgiving
Giving my best go at brushing rugs
Heartstrings left open to tug
Even allowing little outpours of love
But let’s resort back to our fighting
Because every time we’re happy enough
I feel that little riot starter biting
Something funny happens when you love
It’s like your tolerance explodes
You forgive, and forget
Because you can’t keep tabs on every dose
I love you enough
To forget my single principles
But don’t act like my come back
Is mystical
She is so passive, so hands on
Can I relent my aggressive attitude
And let my softer side be strong?
She casts aside your cold eyes
And holds you way too long
Satisfies that submission
And I don’t know where she gets it from
But I know I could learn some lessons
Acquiesce my angry grip
Got so much passion, so much desire
I’m scared to let it slip
I don’t want to prove to you
I’m right where you need me to be
But I’ve never had someone love
The way that you love me
I promise to relax, if you loosen those dictations
I won’t be so on your case
If you stop being aggravating
If you come home on time for once
I’ll put a stop to my ruminating
I won’t love you like a doormat will
I won’t touch you like a punching bag
I won’t kiss until you get ill
Or serve things you’ve never had
But I’m up for being normal
Being happy and carefree
I’ll do it all for you
If you’ll do the same by me.
