Twisted and tangled
There’s been too many days began, with sunshine and a plan
Only to crash and burn and then get tossed in the garbage
can
Like going fishing with a fancy rod, best one listed all new-fangled
First cast hit the
trees, lost my grip, it was all twisted and tangled
Tripped and landed on my knees, too many times trying to
please
Love she gets me so hot but in the blink of an eye she can
freeze
Like a wrestling match I get body slammed and blind punched two
fisted and mangled
I saw a pretty home, a perfect pair till a tornado hit my
heart and left it twisted and tangled
Simple’s always good, hell a Zebco’s easier to cast, expensive fancy ones never last
Summer always seems like the best time of the year, but it
goes away too fast
He listened to her words but no matter how she pleaded and
persisted and angled
He remembered all the days with sunshine and a plan that
ended all twisted and tangled
