lost my touch
say anything
some say i've lost my touch at crafting say anything songs
i suppose i'll let you take my place on stage
it's not a difficult job to supplant
and you're twice as insightful at half my age
just string together lines of smug
your shoulder holds the weight
wield your ageless thesaurus
clutch the awkward fifteen pounds you've grown to hate
you will be greater than i
brings a warm smile to my face
so grapple with your sexual misconduct and
and grate your voice and make a choice to hibernate
it's the better half of us that live the worse
you'll shed corporate ties
with rejects and misfits for friends
simmering in the glow of the angels in your home
i'm warm in the blanket of my niche
how you sing back makes me cry
there are many taught a love forgot
it will keep breathing when i die
what's left to do but keep those words and phrases away?
the ones we all knew and live in fear to claim
