Adam Green - Boss Inside Lyrics

How do you find the guy around here
I've already sped through a year
I've already tried all the campus bars at night
And even cried alone at the diner

Somewhere there's a prince
And he likes to strike me down
I know I'm not the reason
I'm just the one he found

And all these other cowards
They're not hard to boss around
You just get them in your arms
And you hold them till they drown

I walked back to the cottage
With no hand around my wrist
When I heard the sound of vodka
Bottles breaking

I went out to the clearing
He was standing with a fist
But I couldn't see the face
That he was making

He said make me some dinner
I said, "I thought you'd never ask"
He was standing in my kitchen
I was filling up his glass

He finally started screaming
And pointing to the bed
He wanted me to kill him
But I took his life instead

Ugly moments strung together
And the poor guy couldn't even find his temper
And he could no longer make me cry
I guess the boss inside of him died
I guess the boss inside of him died
I guess the boss inside of him died
