The Bidding

I've been sleeping in a cardboard box Spending every dollar on a losing lot And even though I know it isn't worth much stock You know it's better to have tried than not Can you tell me who you're trying to fool? I can't seem to find the point you're trying to make And if you think that you can lie to me Then I think you've made a big mistake Going once, going twice Every madman has his vice Some have lust, some have greed Some have intra psychosocial envy We've been here like a thousand times Circled all around this dreadful carousel You say that you're so cognizant Of all the patterned lies that you try not to tell And yet you still continue putting in your dimes And continue this revolving hell And here he is the piece of shit Sitting, seething high atop his stolen throne Glass is the house of the hypocrite And yet you still continue arming stones Going once, going twice Let me lend you some advice Time is short, life even more Yet you wage this silly war Going twice, going thrice Guess this means we'll tie the rope today See, I've been in total agony, relentlessly Ever since you came around You came around Stuck, deteriorating helplessly, endlessly The ruler of our soul, left never crowned, forever bound Your silence deafens more than any sound Oh my God, holy shit We were there that was it Did you see harmony if only temporarily? The halves I reviled An attempt to concile One more time, go again No, this can't be the end It was mean, it was vile Like a freak, like a child But for once, heart and mind Had finally combined I believe I concede You can finally enweave If not for you or for him Then please do it for me 'Cause I don't know how much more I can take This creeping, seeping, sickly, sweeping Heinous heartache So please, won't you just attempt to be free? 'Cause I think I can finally be me We've been here like a thousand times Fighting the other hemisphere But maybe if we reasoned our rhymes This dissonance could disappear
