lyrics
"Flavor of the Day" (D. Blood)
The grass is always greener when the load’s too much to take
I’m feeling sick when I come ‘round thinkin’
To your own twisted ways
It all seems too convenient like some innocent exchange
I’m tired of being used and thrown away
I took that path too many times, too many times you’ve strayed
I traded in my deck of cards for a flavor of the day
You emptied out my broken heart with a ticket and a spade
I’m sick of being used and thrown away
It rattled my mind going ‘round that bend
Couldn’t pick which way my feet should go
Holding the dice took so long to mend
You brushed me off with pity and pretended to be my friend
Every time you get in touch it all seems so contrived
I was at best your back up plan when you needed to unwind
I thought I was the sentimental type but it’s just too late
I’m happy now with the life I live today
