SO QUICK TO SOLOMON by jerzey

So quick to Solomon - or would you Judas me instead?
Persecuting me for delusions of the words you said
Walking a thread bare tightrope between each side
All the while having both question where my loyalties lie.
Everything is mangled - you can't change history
An eye for an eye - but now no one can see.
My ears are sore from the chatter & my heart aches from the break.
A trail of anger & hurt left in the fracture's wake
All the fingers have been pointed, along with the he said/she said.
Where friendship used to live, casualties of war now lie instead
I ask how I can look you in the eye
When I'm unable to answer your only question: "why?"
I wish I could do more then hold you, then kiss your tears gone
I wish I could stop them from forming, so thick, so strong
I don't know what to do, can't seem to find where I should be
Telling me you were leaving, did all but shatter me
If I could turn back the clock, I'd make everything right somehow, some way
Still waiting for that rainbow they say comes after a rainy day
This wishful thinking, best intentions shit is for the birds
Ask yourself if being right is worth all the hurt.
So many can live with themselves but I struggle to do the same
Too busy defending myself, trying to deflect blame
But I'm worn out, tired of playing the game
Too many sides to "take", we've all gone insane
Lay down your swords, give it a rest
Stop worrying about who is wrong, focus on being your best
Let the clouds part, & the sun shine bright
Show me my rainbow, tell me everything's alright
I need this white lie, more then you know
It doesn't matter who wins the war, the battle scars still show.
