Joe Hagerty - The Politician

I gave you may faith
But you only take
You don't give me what I want
And the promises you made
Are the only terms you forgot
You said you'd show me the sky
But gave me rock bottom low
I'm not the typical guy
To play ensemble in your show
I gave you my faith
But you only take
You don't help me when I fall
But when you need my support
I'm the first one you call
I'm so tired of you
For not opening up your fucking eyes
And seeing that all of life's happiness
Is right in front of you
You're like a politician
Whose has stabbed me with your lies
You only care about numbers
You don't care for any guys
I said I could hold your hand
But you only care about where you stand
You took the bribe that was there
And forgot the guy who really cares
For you
Because I look at you and I see myself
In those shadows on the wall
I look at you, I see myself, and I smile
When I see you in the hall
Those blackened waters that rest
Right there up in your mind
I know how it feels
But you gotta leave them behind
I gave you my faith
But you only take
And yet I'm still supporting you
You're blinded by your perfection
You can't be number two
Why can't you listen to me
And open up your eyes
And see that all of life's happiness
Is right in front of you
In front of you
I looked at you and I saw myself
In those shadows on the wall
I looked at you and my heart danced
It danced right down the hall
And that sea of blackness that rests
Right there up in your mind
I know how it feels
But you gotta leave it behind
But you're like a politician
Whose has hurt me with your lies
You only care about numbers
You can't care for any guys
I said I could hold your hand
But you only care about where you stand
You took the bribe that was there
And forgot the guy who really cares
You are a
You're just a politician
You're like a politician
You have hurt me with your lies
You have hurt me with your lies
Your lies your lies your lies
You forgot the guy who really cares for you
And look at you now
You fucking lost
