Do It Better Desi Williams
In the darkness I stumble and wait
While my fate you deliberate
I will not stand by while you contemplate
Any longer, for it’s almost too late
I must seize control this very moment
Lest everything disintegrates and all is forgotten
I will not stand idly, unmoving
This time will be different – I’ll prove it
I’ve choked on your lies long enough
Performed fellatio on your fallacies
as I began to corrupt
You corroded and eroded my sense of self,
but I’m on the cusp
Of rediscovery, when I’ll truly find love
When you mess up fess up and don’t wait too long
For then you begin to believe you weren’t wrong
And justifications and excuses arise
and lying will be the theme of your song
My life is not yours to mash and to mold
To maim, to mystify, to have and to hold
Soon I’ll be free of your grasp and you’ll know
That loneliness and guilt for what you induced
shall be the toll
The price you pay
for the grief you gave
never letting up
despite my attempts to make up
I said I was sorry for the things I didn’t do
And for the real mistakes and the in-betweens, too
But sorry doesn’t cut it
It’ll never be good enough
You’ll nit pick and find fly shit in the pepper
So I have to redo it, only for you to say...
"Do it better.”
