Fodder for My Pen

It was clear to see I loved you from the start

You took advantage of me and trampled on my heart

You kicked me down when I was head over heals

But it’ll come back around, and you’ll see how it feels

Another charade, a play of smoke and mirrors

Another escape, a mix of whiskey and tears

There you go, breaking my heart, but then

I know, it’s all just fodder for my pen

So here I go, a new empty road lies ahead of me

Now here I go, filling a blank sheet on the page

Here I go, running away from my destiny

There I go, leaving my life on the stage

Another charade, a play of smoke and mirrors

Another escape, a mix of whiskey and tears

There you go, breaking my heart, but then

I know, it’s all just fodder for my pen

It’s such a shame, another near miss in the dark

In a foolish game, another traverse to embark

Another charade, a play of smoke and mirrors

Another escape, a mix of whiskey and tears

There you go, breaking my heart, but then
I know, it’s all just fodder for my pen
