Lyrics for Song: Contempt 
Lyrics for Album: Stories Of Johnny [2011]
  
               
  22339>I'm trying to wash the taste away
  I'm trying to wash the taste away
  Trying not to cry the night away
  Trying not to cry the night away
  I'm finding a bitter word to say
  And I'm finding it easier every day
 
 
  Contempt
  Every day it fills me
  Contempt
  Every day it kills me
  Contempt
  Every tear that blinds me
  Contempt
  Building up inside me
 
 
  One kiss and the poison melts away
  One smile and the poison melts away
  I'm trying not to cry the nights away
  I'm trying not to cry the nights away
  I'm finding a bitter word to say
  And I'm finding it easier every day
 
 
  Contempt
  Every day it fills me
  Contempt
  Every day it kills me
  Contempt
  Every tear that blinds me
  Contempt
  Building up inside me
 
 
  You came crawling out the woodwork
 
 
  Like some ghost from my past
  With stories 'bout me
  That I'd long since forgot
  Telling me tales of how big you are now
  But I know you as nothing
  As nothing you got
  You'd split me wide open
  And spill all my beans
  Because you think
  That I still think
  Something of you
  You'd run away with everything
  That I have
  Take all my soul, sense and dignity too
 
 
  Loving is the saddest game to play
  Loving is the saddest game to play
  I'm trying not to cry the nights away
  I'm trying not to cry the nights away
  I'm finding a bitter word to say
  And I'm finding it easier every day
 
 
  Contempt
  Every day it fills me
  Contempt
  Every day it kills me
  Contempt
  Every tear that blinds me
  Contempt
  Building up inside me
