"It's been a while" - Staind

I painted you machines
alined in cubic rows,
with tubes and tarzan vines
like sprawled mapped highway roads.

What I was told
Of love,
Involved chest protruding arrows
lifted up by the wings of sparrows.

But I don't buy that.
No, I don't buy that.

I sang to you
about the fire inside our walls.
And how it walks within us,
but all you do smile.

And they graciously
sell away their flesh,
and the poisoned soil complains
of symbols inadequate for its name.

But I don't buy that.
No, I don't buy that.

So I send to you
this message in green glass,
And while you thought it was of my "heart",
Now wouldn't that just be a mess.

And now I know, I know not.
the values valuted by most.
The bench in the botanicals,
I couldn't bear to tell you it was my soul.

But I don't buy that.
No, I don't buy that

No, I don't buy that.
Oh, I won't buy that
at all.

No, I don't buy that
at all.
