Screwed up & wary

thetworegs

The clue is in the title Reg woke up feeling a little disgruntled with the world ….
Screwed up & wary
You say tell me your secrets
but all you’ll hear are my lies
The compromised childhood
remember the lord of the flies
Screwed up wary but alive

learned to improvise
became one of the guys
Never heard hello
It was always a sorry goodbye
I smile when I cry
I laugh with tears in my eyes
I’m screwed up and wary but I’m alive

Love has become another word for sorrow
It seems Nothing good in life is free
I know I’m screwed up and wary but alive

Is Lonliness the only thing left for us
The ones who are lucky to live longest
they win that prize
Love feeling like it was theft
Loving someone but being bereft
Screwed up wary but alive

You say tell me your secrets
but remember you’ll only hear my lies
My comprised childhood
remember re-read the Lord of the flies
I learned to improvise
And become one of the guys
I smile when I cry
Love has become another word for sorrow
seems Nothing good in life is free
I know, I’m screwed up and wary but alive
