lyrics

I've been coming 'round since I met you
In my endless pursuit of things I'll never truly understand
But when my story starts to come unglued
All the fragments of truth I give can't paint a victim of circumstance

And I could tell the second it came tumbling out my mouth...

That it just takes one and the trust is redacted
Without so much as a severance package
And I'm left thinking "God, what have I done?"
And have no doubt, you can draw the division
With one bad choice and a crucial omission
And once it rings, that bell can't be unrung

See that violence flicker in your eyes
As you peel the disguise away and see me naked and afraid
No more private misery tonight
All the cute little lies are laid out bare in colorful display

And I could tell the second it came tumbling out my mouth...

That it just takes one and the trust is redacted
Without so much as a severance package
And I'm left thinking "God, what have I done?"
And have no doubt, you can draw the division
With one bad choice and a crucial omission
And once it rings, that bell can't be unrung

Strip the front away, I can't believe the things that I'm saying
I could try to glue the pieces but my words would be wasted
Don't be fooled
There's no way in a million explanations
To turn this back around

And I could tell the second it came tumbling out my mouth...

That it just takes one and the trust is redacted
Without so much as a severance package
And I'm left thinking "God, what have I done?"
And have no doubt, you can draw the division
With one bad choice and a crucial omission
And once it rings, that bell can't be unrung
