lyrics

My hand will be extended in gratitude to you. All of your incorrigible actions, help me see what I never wanted to grow to be. So quick to speak, so slow to listen. You were the antagonist I needed. My jugular was never too far for your shank. Thank you. Thank you for always being there to make me question why I ever confided in you. A burden will never be carried for leaving it all behind. The distorted picture that was painted was auto-biographical. I could barely see your frame. Thank you for the blurry image, thank you for helping me focus mine.
