Proper Condemnation

what a nice day for a surprise

you paddle me for my importancy
dreaming of me like a pleasantry
wake up to find me in the back room
drinking my last ounce of booze
you chide me for indecencies
while stroking me consistently
where does the person who loves me hide
deep in the day when you've hit your stride
gnawing at bits to infuriate
         me
as I pass on attempts to insinuate
anything to put you off in space again
and leading to thoughtless mistakes again

dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong ding

you punish me like leprosy
as you fathom me like a conspircy
everything you break becomes new
         it seems
like everything else you take you
think of it as your inheritance
deserving like a warm embrace
without holding your arms out to fill
the arms of the one who's heart you kill

dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong dingdong dingdong
dingdong dingdong ding

what a nice day for a surprise

your happiness is a smoking gun
that likes the pain in everyone
when will you see that there's
         so much
more to me than what earns your care
tiring me like cellophane
wrapping around my cramping brain
stabbing my love for life
         out of
my chasm with your dark blunt knife
when you think you love someone you don't destroy
what is left for you to enjoy

what a nice day for a surprise
