Piano Wire Number 12

There’s a narc, on my block, and he’s parked
Near the shade of a cherry tree
He’s coming to beat the truth right out of me
Like I did you
The mistakes that I make innocent with the past inability
To function properly, according to the law
I will take on a name and a face that I borrowed from an ex-fiance
So that I can dodge another conspiracy against me, walk away
I just don’t know where to let it go, let it go
I swear I’m not a psycho
I just don’t know where to let you go, let you go
So the cops sat me down in a cell and they asked
«Where the blood came from?»
Stains on my shirt and hands
I said, «Ask the girl»
So they talked to conclude that my brain isn’t screwed on tight enough
This bullshit flawed system is, keeping me from two girls
Why should I be forced to let you go, let you go
I’ll beat you 'til you love me
Diabolical hypocrisy is tainting me, but it won’t stop me
First degree charge for criminal battery
Yeah baby, gotta believe me
I’ll kill you dead before I let you go, let you go
I’m here all alone, playing cards, reading books
Serving up my time with a bunch of disgusting pigs, in a county jail
I will dream of the day they release me out of this malicious place
And how I dream to see your face, and make you pay for what you’ve done
