They Say

they say that love is blind
it makes it hard to find
your queen of hearts
when you can't see the cards
they say that beauty fades
but love remains
if you can get that far
you won't look good but you are
they say fools rush in
just tell me when
i'm ready for the ride
they say it's all you need
but it sure does seem to be
in awful short supply
they say that time is money
ain't it funny how
we spend our lives
tryin' to make a dime
they say that cash is king
but i'm still waiting
on my royalties
they hung me out to dry
they say it's pay to play
no wonder all my friends
are poor as dirt
they say that talk is cheap
but they keep spewin'
all these million dollar words
they say the good die young
guess i'm about halfway
to hell by now
cruisin' down the route
they say the road is paved
with good intentions
just don't look down
and keep one foot on the ground
they say to walk the line
but it's so fine
my feet they bleed and burn
they say that life is pain
i'd say you might as well
enjoy it while it hurts

The Deep End

So you call yourself a man
That's very nice, but I don't think you understand
The conditions that apply
Are you sure you qualify?
You got your big guns
You're throwin' money around
Lettin' all the ladies know
There's a new pimp in town
Seems your ego tripped into machismo
But let the record show
She went down to the bottom of the deep end
You talked shit, but you barely dipped your feet in
You're standin' at the edge, your reflection's all you're seein'
You may be twice as big, but you ain't half the man that she is
So you call yourself a man
Must be nice to deal yourself a perfect hand
King of diamonds in the rough
Queen of hearts will call your bluff
Take a deep breath
Cuz you're goin' down
There ain't no hidin' from the truth
It's gonna find you
You're a glass house of cards on a shaky grave
Let the wind blow
She went down to the bottom of the deep end
You talked shit, but you barely dipped your feet in
You're standin' at the edge, your reflection's all you're seein'
I bet your mama's real proud you believe
You're inherently better than she is
