Throwing Good After Bad

(album: In These Silent Days - 2021)

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I know you're leaving me
I know I'm not your home
You want a movie dancer
You want blood from a stone
But I'm on to you
And you will pour your heart into
Any shimmering fad
Throwing good after bad

People get addicted to
The rush, the chase, the new
Just hoping that all that chaos
Will lead to something like this
I'll get over you
But you won't be whole until you do
You won't find what you had
Throwing good after bad

And I'll always feel a little left behind
But that lying wind that calls your name
Will leave you flying blind

Are you fantasizin'?
You're taking us for granted
I know you're bored
You always say I'm heavy handed
You got a beautiful mind
And a soul of a coyote
Hunger driving you mad
Throwing good after bad
Hunger driving you mad
Throwing good after bad

I know you loved me once
You were something to prove
I was an unfinished song
You were nothing to lose
I'm a dandelion
And when my color suited you
You allowed me to grow
But you know when you know
And now the party's over
And you're dancing alone
You've been spinning 'round for hours
And the band have all gone home

And you're fantasizing
You're taking us for granted
I know you're bored
You always say I'm heavy handed
You got a beautiful mind
And a soul of a coyote
Hunger driving you mad
Throwing good after bad
Hunger driving you mad
Throwing good after bad
Hunger driving you mad
Throwing good after bad
Hunger driving you mad

Ooh, ooh, ooh
