Head to Head
Am I the one that you have chosen to despise
When the pickings were so rich for all this time?
I'm the easiest of choices, the most audible of voices
The most obvious of thorns buried in your side
Collectively, you've a host of enemies
I'm so proud that I can stand above the rest
While I walk devoid of caution
I'm aware of your distortions
Hands down, I'm the winner, no contest
So come down why not tell me
Is this bitterness not just envy?
Then why give it such a high place in your heart?
Cause it was never my intention to strive for re-invention
I just didn't feel that much for you from the start
Respectfully, I care not for history
For yours or mine, or for a man I've never met
But its clear that I have pained you
Though I've never really tried to
Once again, I'm the winner, no content
But for the sake of argument
I have something to suggest
So that you may sleep tonight
Lets go head to head, would you put it to bed?
Go head to head, would you put it to bed?
How about the pushing and shoving we endured
Is there time for one more round, am I too late?
I don't want it, I don't need it and I know you won't concede it
Let's dook it out and set the record straight
Because of me you will expire before your time
And I don't need to face that standing at The Gates
You persevered this far along
I even wrote you your own song
Hands down, I'm the winner, take the bait
But for the sake of argument
I have something to suggest
So that you may sleep tonight
Lets go head to head, would you put it to bed?
Go head to head, would you put it to bed?
When the pickings were so rich for all this time?
I'm the easiest of choices, the most audible of voices
The most obvious of thorns buried in your side
Collectively, you've a host of enemies
I'm so proud that I can stand above the rest
While I walk devoid of caution
I'm aware of your distortions
Hands down, I'm the winner, no contest
So come down why not tell me
Is this bitterness not just envy?
Then why give it such a high place in your heart?
Cause it was never my intention to strive for re-invention
I just didn't feel that much for you from the start
Respectfully, I care not for history
For yours or mine, or for a man I've never met
But its clear that I have pained you
Though I've never really tried to
Once again, I'm the winner, no content
But for the sake of argument
I have something to suggest
So that you may sleep tonight
Lets go head to head, would you put it to bed?
Go head to head, would you put it to bed?
How about the pushing and shoving we endured
Is there time for one more round, am I too late?
I don't want it, I don't need it and I know you won't concede it
Let's dook it out and set the record straight
Because of me you will expire before your time
And I don't need to face that standing at The Gates
You persevered this far along
I even wrote you your own song
Hands down, I'm the winner, take the bait
But for the sake of argument
I have something to suggest
So that you may sleep tonight
Lets go head to head, would you put it to bed?
Go head to head, would you put it to bed?
