Crocodiles

(album: Psychic Jailbreak - 2022)

Yeah, we used to be friends
Egg-shells, blank stares, dead letter, dead end
Went from here to there
Yelling at the sand, but the desert don't care

You give us all of this grief
Bark, no bite, you're a crocodile with no teeth
What have you got planned?
I don't think that I understand

What happened to you?
What happened to your sense of purpose?
Was it all just a lie?
What happened to us versus them?
Now we are the great divide

Yeah, the doctor skipped town
Bicycle thief, wrap sheet like a crooked crown
Went from there to here
Handful of bullets with nothing to fear

You got me shaking like a leaf
Top wound tight, you're a crocodile with no teeth
I can't see what you're saying
I don't think that I understand

What happened to you?
What happened to your sense of purpose?
Was it all just a lie?
What happened to us versus them?

Now we are the great divide
What happened to the words you told me
When you looked me in the eye?
I guess we'll never know

I'm sick and tired of these thoughts running through my brain
Change the channel, make 'em stop, make them go away
I release these ghosts from my life, living proof
The lessons of this world are the truth

I don't know you anymore
What happened to the words you told me
When you looked me in the eye?
I guess we'll never know
Now we are the great divide
Now we are the great divide
