It's Down To This
It's down to this . . . .
Fighting never ending
It's down to this . . . .
Neither of us bending
It's down to this . . . .
Now we fight over our daughter
It's down to this . . . .
E-mosh-a-nal slaughter
We saw it coming long ago
We lived our live - a picture show
You had your lovers -I had mine
Our indescretions just a sign
Of how we failed & how love lied
Of how love lived & how love died
It's down to this . . . .
Hating one another
It's down to this . . . .
Living lies - we're undercover
It's down to this . . . .
Unforgiving - unremorseful
It's down to this . . . .
With our lies we're so resourceful
You were once my onyx queen
I your white knight in a dream
I always thought you drank a lot
While I was always smoking pot
In anger we both sit & glare
Stuck on ourselves we get nowhere
It's down to this . . . .
The girl I loved is such a stranger
It's down to this . . . .
Pleasant memories are in danger
It's down to this . . . .
Our lawyers duel in the courtroom
It's down to this . . . .
We see the truth that our love is doomed
It lasted for almost 10 years
Of laughing loving; fights & tears
I don't know you - you don't know me
I hate you & you hate me
We share our child & history
We share in so much misery
It's down to this . . . .
This courtroom is so crowded
It's down to this . . . .
Our hearts became so clouded
It's down to this . . . .
You call me evil - I call you witch
It's down to this . . . .
I'm the Bastard - You're the Bitch
Our daughter loves us both & cries,
"Stop your fighting! Stop the lies!"
"Remember when you loved each other;"
"Before you both took different lovers?"
"Why can't you both just let this be?"
"Can't you see what this has done to me?"
It's down to this . . . .
A child's vision is the truest
It's down to this . . . .
Why did we ever do this?
It's done to this . . . .
Now we've made our child a token
It's down to this . . . .
And now our family is broken
We lived our lives outside the borders
And now the judge will issue orders
This fight will end in our divorce
Each life will take its seperate course
We will not give a "Farewell Kiss"
Because we know - IT'S DOWN TO THIS!
