The Last Straw

(album: Rockaholic - 2011)

I heard the news today
That you were going your own way
Broken glass hits my wall
Shattered egos always want it all

You're gonna see some day
That you can't play with life this way
It'll cut you, it'll bite
Chew you up until you get it right
That's right

Your song is so un-new
Your words are so untrue
I've lost my patience for dealing with you

That's the last straw
No more blood for you to draw
That's the last straw
I'm not here to take your fall
That's the last straw
Just a picture on the wall

You've taken everything
You've thrown it all away
That's the last straw

Now I've found my way
You can hit the highway
Of broken dreams and ruined things
Run right over everything that's in your way

Your song is so un-new
Your words are so untrue
I lost my patience for dealing with you

That's the last straw
No more blood for you to draw
That's the last straw
I am not here to take your fall
That's the last straw
Just a picture on the wall

You've taken everything
And thrown it all away

You took all I had to give
It's never enough for you
This is no way to live
I'm closing the door

[Guitar solo]

Your song is so un-new
Your words are so untrue
I've lost my patience for dealing with you

That's the last straw
No more blood for you to draw
That's the last straw
I am not here to take your fall
That's the last straw
Just a picture on the wall

(Last straw)
Your song is so un-new
(Last straw)
Your words are so untrue
(Last straw)
No more blood for you to draw
(Last straw)
Just a crooked picture on the wall
