Jake of All Tradez - cutting the strings Lyrics

You mucked this up
You set in motion the thought
I'm not good enough
You did it just cause you could and
I just couldn't get enough
I played the chump
And I couldn't ever cut it
I matched the blood on your hands
(but) the blood won't wash off

Forgive my intrusion
Forgot my inclusion
My name in your mouth
Confirms my suspicion
This war of attrition
Is wearing me out

I HAVE PLAYED THE FOOL
Just to play the fiddle
I DON'T MAKE THE RULES
Stuck right in the middle

You pressed your luck
I sat back doing nothing
Despite a non-stop battle
You played the trump
I didn't
And I matched your bloody notions
But blood's not good enough

I didn't
I couldn't
I wasn't
Willing to exit my feelings

I was feeling
Raw emotions
I will need
All that's unspoken
I can ease my erosion
I can ease this along
With your DEMOTION

I was feeling
Raw emotions
I was knocked on my knees
And I couldn't get it
It was up to me, and I couldn't get it
I've gotta GO
Gotta GO
Gotta GO
