Battlefield Of the ex'es

Forces collide

on this battlefield of the ex'es

and this familiar swordplay

war of the sexes

based around

what effects us

in our roles,

our flesh ridden home

that knocks us off our axis

because some of us

we think

too damn much

and we believe

others will protect us.

Then they just

put people in trances

so they can't see the rough

and won't seem so tough.

Just go! Just do

whatever the hell

the Ass in you fancies

just be gone, damn it

be gone

from my life

from my answers

because you were never

any good at those

oh, ho, ho, though

how you could quote

the poetry and prose

and weave a tale

Yes,

you were good at those

I got one too, you know

a tale

very brutal and gory

I'm still waiting here

I'm still standing

With my sword in hand

Hear Me!

Hear Me Demand!

a goodbye story!

I'm tired of cleaning up

and containing your messes

so she doesn't see

you were never

going to protect us

so she doesn't see

the results of your actions

So I meet you, here

on this battlefield

of the ex'es

Me, against the one

who chose to forsake us

and make us

out to be a part

of your problem

My my, baby

I hope that sword

you carry

is sharp

and that Armour

you wear

protects your

fickle heart

because, today

I am DONE

should have taken you down

at the start

Before,

this battlefield of the ex'es

when the take down is tougher
should have taken you out

back when we went to war

on the battlefield of Lovers.
