Kliffs - Jackpot
after taking a deep breathI rolled out the carpet
and put my mind on display
each syllable that walked upon it
sounded like a ricochet
you stood there
like in a museum
your icy eyes on me
you didn't want to pay the admission
to see my idiosyncracies
you say the truth is a jackpot
that I've got nothing to lose
you say you want me to be honest
til I tell you the truth
we're turning in circles
our violence is verbal
even the good is blamed
we fight then surrender
turn tough to tender
then start it all over again
now you stand there
before me
and I'm afraid of what your lips will do
I'm only here for the honey
and the hit of I love you
it's gotta be worth it
to cut through the bullshit
and test every theory on a fire
