Jettison the Bull Shit

I'm sick of silly games
i don't want jealousy
and the bravado we display

I just want to love and to be loved in return

Don't care what people say
or think, anymore
let freedom lead the way

Jettison the  bull shit,
no more for me today, let it go i say
don't come back another day

I just want to love and be loved in return

We were not put on this planet
to suffer I say , so why  not leave
that baggage at the door

I just want to love and to  be loved in return

Nothing like...

emptying out the bull-shit! It makes our baggage lighter. Maybe change the line: don't come back another day] to something like: send the baggage on it's way? I don't know, it just seems that line is a little unwieldy. Loved the sentiment though! ~ Gee xx
