Friday morning undertow

Promises not kept 

Always seeking more

Though I haven't slept

Rushing out the door 

Inconvenient facts

Cannot hide the truth

It seeps into the cracks

And spoils eternal youth

Jealousy and hate

Opens up your eyes

Angry words unspoken

Necessary lies

Joyful we can be

Oh to know the way

Never dreamt I'd see

Every word you say 

Save me from myself
