The Next Time - Government Issue

Situations and advice I’m hearing

Was it just you or talk?

I painted a dreary picture

And built it around your face

Next time, you hear word of mouth

Next time, come straight to me

Next time, put away the hearsay

The next time

We’re too good friends for this

I wouldn’t hurt you no matter what

The scene is just an empty dream

And who wants to face reality?
