pave the road with suspicion and fear
more like your father year by year
you never thought it would be that way
you made your bed on rejection day

you stood tall on your pedestal of right
as you pushed me away that night
you look back as you breathe your last
wishing that moment was still in your grasp

you dream of the woman you held for a time
just like you I wish you were mine
feel of my skin is but a memory
you’ll turn to her and wish it was me

to me you are just another song
to you I am just an excuse for wrong

to me you are just another song
to you I am just an excuse for wrong
