Fences Lyrics

They say good fences make good neighbors

But I don't wanna see you over the picket

And I'm not writing you a love song

But I'd love if you'd give a shit

Cause my ego and greed

Intersect at a point that's dear to me

My crippled self esteem

Yeah I've been prideful and wrong

Holding falsehoods close to my chest for way to long

Way too long

Now that I'm older I can see

Everything I did that brought hell down upon me

It was me

Stubborn and hot in the core

Piss and vinegar, trying to settle the score

With anyone

Life's not personal

Hurt people hurt

And you just got to let go

Or fall down the hole

Because the hate in my gut

Makes me bitter

And all the doors it shut

Just think what

You're missing

If you hold on

For way too long

Way to long

They say good fences make good neighbors

So I guess I'll smile over the picket

And I'm not needing a love song

To know that you give a shit
