Whatever Piper

I can’t hear a word you say
When I pushed you away
I’ll read your mind
My eyes pointed to the ground
Ears shutting out the sound
To save all I’ve done
I know that I’m wrong
I’d no sooner die than
Admit that you’re right
I don’t care what you think
Cause I’m driven to drink it away
I know that I’m wrong
Please don’t ask why
I should put out the fire
Oh, I’d rather be dead than
Hear anything you said yesterday
I’m ridin' my high horse
In spite of his 4 broken legs
He’s had too much to drink
And, now his memory’s so vague
He’s havin' trouble gettin'
Out of this starting gate
I’m stuck in my stubborn ways
Miserably livin' days
With my anger
With my selfish addiction
To drug-induced fiction
I am a stranger
Now that I know that I’m wrong
I’d no sooner die than admit that you’re right
I won’t care what you think
Cause I’m driven to drink it away
I know that I’m wrong
Please don’t ask why
I should…
