Dirty Water

(album: Play It Like That - 2001)

I never thought that you could be that way
Friends from young and now you've changed
Love and trust has turned to hate
If I'd have known you'd do me over
Deceiving me in a big way
I never thought that you'd betray

Why did I bother
Shouldn't have bothered
Trying to keep my cool with you
Telling lies I could not see through
Why did I bother
Shouldn't have bothered
Like sisters I would kill for you
Now I know your words are not true

And you can't spend all of your time
Dirty water on your mind
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water
You're like the devil in disguise double faced and telling lies
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water

As evil thoughts dwell in your soul
Grinding your mind into a hole
Filled with spite and tension
You give me nothing but deception
What's more to say that's not much more
Could it be just like before?

Why did I bother
Shouldn't have bothered
I was blinded like a fool thinking that lies were true
Why did I bother
Shouldn't have bothered
Only thing that can make me say
Stay the hell away from me

And you can't spend all of your time
Dirty water on your mind
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water
You're like the devil in disguise
Double faced and telling lies
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water [x2]

That's the end of your game
And it's always the same
Life's come to a stop and you flow to the top
Through the shadows of dirty water

On your mind, dirty water
All the time, dirty water
On your mind, dirty water
All the time, dirty water

Now you can't spend all of your time
Dirty water on your mind
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water
You're like the devil in disguise
Double faced and telling lies
Ya can't see through unless it's blue
The bottom of dirty water
