Petty

Lemon drop ghost
You tiptoe
Through my head
Thought I knew you so well
But there's a darker shade
To your intent
And my empathy just took a blow

You took what you needed from me
And I knew it then
I held on so tight to the good parts
And watched them die in my hands

It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty
It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty

Wary of a women
With a serpents tongue
You know I drank your poison well
Put the glass to my lips
And looked right at you
I was underneath your spell

Was your father a sailor?
Did he go seeking the sun
You've spent your whole life wishing
For angels
Honey I'm as close to one as they come

It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty
It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty

Maybe it's your cross to bare
Claiming that no body cares
Darling I lifted you
That's what friends do

It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty
It's taking every part of me
Not to be Petty
