taken for a ride
accelerated by nerve
careful to avoid the swerve
on purpose we tried
our fates would collide
I agreed to be taken for a ride
taken by storm
it’s not the heat it’s how warm
outside the glass start to form
who gets ripped off when I’m torn wrapping every present to death
what hook goes with baited breath
what’s not the same is still worn
the weather was taken by storm
taken by surprise
the look of shock lies still in your eyes
flawed in every carat you stew
the promise of not me is in view
you’re never wrong so why compromise
dropping me off before you get taken by surprise
taken for a fool
an even swap to keep you seen as cool
no one delivers when nothing brings me joy
one of everything you took from the boy
classroom naked nightmare in high school
every dream taken for a fool
taken for a loss
paying dues for someone else to be the boss
curtain calls for acting out the blues
ignoring events for watching network news
everyone knows when you rebound from a loss
never again will you find me taken me for a loss
taken too soon
the life you want is insured to guarantee
the reasons you need to get you rid of me
I couldn’t hear from being in tune
too far from being taken too soon
