I seen you walkin
in the rain,
draggin on a f*g
in the grey drizzle
that greets each and every
Fresno day.
My heart
hurt me bad
to see such a sight,
and guilt overtook me
till I had to
drink myself sober.
I gave all I had.
No, it wadn't much.
It would never involve
a widescreen TV
and would always include
that pee-soaked hallway.
I coulda stood by
and let them bills rack up,
and let a lot of bad blood
soak through the layers
tween me and my kin,
and continued to play the fool.
Oh yeah, I'm a fool all right.
No one could ever debate that,
sure as s**t not me.
I'm a fool who's heart's a bleedin'.
I wish you well.
Lay off the cons.
