Once, in a blue moon, I'll take a swig, and think of you
For you, were my under, cover lover, on the sly
Alas, once drunk, I became a lost, little boy
Alone, with my china doll, I had to crawl, on broken glass
Cause you, you got me hooked, like a junkie, for your love
Now I'm, I'm doing time, ever since, the double cross
You left me, in a fog, I've gone adrift, without your drug
I've run aground, got turned around, my compass spins, on metal ground
My will has bent, but will not brake, I know my lord, will show the way
But my heart, is giving in, to my lover, who pulls my strings
Cause you, you got me hooked, like a junkie, for your love
Now I'm, I'm doing time, ever since, the double cross
You pierce the heart of the enemy that you just fucked
And claim self-defence when you get caught
You spread the blame around on everybody else but you
You stack your alibi on a house of cards
That come crashing down whenever you talk
You spread the blame around on everybody else but you
You plead the fifth but your eyes give you away
Those crocodile tears are a little too late
You spread the blame around on everybody else but you
You cop a plea and sell me down the river
I wash up on shore with the rest of your victims
You spread the blame around on everybody else but you
These days, I'm dull but clean, like a virgin, before the deed
I keep you close, but out of reach, like a rabbit, the grey hounds chase
I retrace my steps, what can I say, old habits, are hard to shake
Shaky because, I'm going down, on my lover, who wears me out
Cause you, you got me hooked, like a junkie, for your love
Now I'm, I'm doing time, ever since, the double cross

Hello, I'm a singer/songwriter from the Big Timber. My music is my therapy, or more like turning piss into lemonade. My
lyrics read like a secret diary exposed by a scorn lover. Tainted love aside, there are other tales of truckers, ghosts, and a search for a calm place to ride out the storm. I may be strange, but I think that's what makes me unique. Listen and judge for yourself....more
