The Jig Is Up

Post by sprinks41 »

i had a conversation with a friend recently. we spoke about something that is very personal to her. i told her my opinion on it, and she got angry with me. now we barely speak. i was never THAT close with her to begin with, but it still kinda boggles my mind that this happened, so i wrote this.

Verse 1
I've been nothing but kind to you
Watched your scars heal from things you've been through
You tell it like it is, but I guess for me that's a crime
If you can't accept the truth then you're not worth my time

Pre-Chorus
I'll never know where your mind is at
We seem to be done and I'm fine with that

Chorus
Don't point your finger at me when you're the one to blame
All you ever do is try to drown me in your shame
The jig is up I'm on to your little game
Nothing you can say will make me sympathetic
You love playing the victim and it's so pathetic

Verse 2
I don't regret one thing I said to you
If we're through I hope I'm dead to you
Call me shallow and make me the bad guy
I'm the victim of your made-up lie

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)

Bridge
What's with you?
After all you've been through
You still love playing the victim
I used to feel sorry for you
Now I see the real you
You got no one left to blame
They all left as they came
No one can hear you shout
'Cause your time's run out

(Chorus)

I think you should show her some support at this time, don't make this whole thing about you.

I like it but you should change "jig" to game or something like that. Jig is an odd word.
