Lyrics

Well everyone’s got a story to tell
And I think it’s time we heard about you
Just try to turn it, put your best face forward
But I know that you’ve got at least two
You’ve got to keep it up, don’t let your guard down
No, you can’t let them see the truth
Every story spun out from your corner
Painted with the lies that you choose
Now every angle that you feed someone is that
You’re the one whose paying their dues
But you know me and that I’ve seen it all
And all of this to me’s nothing new
Keep snapping branches from your family tree now
Till you cut it down to the roots
When everybody that surround you’s the problem
It may be time to look back at you

Now today, All alone, I can see where the foundation broke
And we say, that we won’t but we break the hearts of those we love
And the friend that I knew, well she disappeared and now there’s you
I don’t know what to do, who to trust, what to choose

I gotta wonder if you’re in on the fable
Do you believe the things you say too?
I know you sell it all the best that you’re able
But deep down do you ignore the truth?
You soldier on in your life of denial
Tell yourself it’s the best you can do
But in your mind with your hand on the dial
You can’t ignore the things that you knew
