Parent message is 242468
you cannot afford the bankrupt laws
broken heart and all
try to cancel debts of others
who cheated and lied and stole
the covers
claiming to call you back
yeah, later, right
and so leaving you with
tattered threads and kisses
stolen
that loan
you gave to your lover
you won’t get it back
not now baby,
not with a bush in the white house
