The truth will set you free
But it will also condemn you

I should have trusted my gut
But you made me so nauseous
Its like the butterflies
Turned into locust
And I came out of my shell
Just to crawl back in
I thought I'd shed my old ways
Or at least atoned for my sins
But I'm still the same kid
The truth always comes out in time
No matter how hard you try and hide
But I've grown tired of losing myself
And I'm starting to think that you never meant well
Ill take up half the blame but
Only if you pull your own weight
I was so overbearing
Didn't know when to quit
But you never had the guts to say no
Or was your reasoning selfish
Guess well never know
The truth always comes out in time
No matter how hard you try and hide
But I've grown tired of losing myself
And I'm starting to think that you never meant well
I snitched on myself
Every night I choke on what to say
But I don't know how to throw you away
The truth is a tough thing to come to terms with
So let's start with what you remember
When was the first time you felt like this

Making out in a car at the bottom of a ditch
(I only wanted a kiss)
Just a single kiss
Now I'd give every thing to you on a whim
Call me a sucker for your attention
Maybe I gave in too easily
Collapsed under the weight of your tongue on mine
Was it the moment our eyes locked
Or was it when you pulled me in by my tie
Now I cant feel my wrists
Could you loosen up your shackles
I know I always said I wanted you
But I didn't know love would feel like this
Another sleepless night
As I dream about a future for you and I
But in the back of my mind
I know its too good to he true but I cant leave your side
I wasn't ready for the fall
But I'm glad you caught me
I wasn't ready for the fall
But I'm glad you caught me
I hate the way I feel when I'm not around you
But I want to give you distance and space
But how much is enough or too much
I hate this dangerous game
Every word is another wrong move
Another piece to the graveyard
There's no way out checkmate on this game of chess
Make me break my own heart with this anxiousness
Making out in a car at the bottom of a ditch
(I only wanted a kiss)
Just a single kiss
But now it cuts and it burns my lips
So much for my wish
Now choke
Another sleepless night
As I dream about a future for you and I
But in the back of my mind
I know its too good to he true but I cant leave your side
I wasn't ready for the fall
But I'm glad you caught me
I wasn't ready for the fall
But I'm glad you caught me

I took you hand
You took my blood
You caged my brain
Till I heard the doves
So please don't drag me through the mud
Or give me false hope you know I'll trust
Then she wrapped her arms around my neck
And mine on her waist
And we danced till dawn
And made sure to seal our fate
I looked into her eyes
A deer in headlights
That couldn't get out of the way
I left my heart in her hands
And she walked away
If looks could kill id already be dead
But its all just your trick to get back inside my head
I gave in to your whim as your feet took the lead
But you clicked your heels three times just to get away from me
Then she wrapped her arms around my neck
And mine on her waist
And we danced till dawn
And made sure to seal our fate
I looked into her eyes
A deer in headlights
That couldn't get out of the way
I left my heart in her hands
And she walked away

You stare directly at the sun
And blinded by the light of things never to come
Are we done today, I've said everything I need to say
Save yourself the grief and cut the knot tied to your leg
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be
So crash yourself right into me
And try to pickup the pieces
Tie a knot and take your leave
Everyone has their reasons
Tell me its not me its you
Then turn around and tell the truth
That I was never enough for you to see this through
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be
Well its a nice day for an overhaul
So go ahead and just cut me off
By the time you look back I'll be gone
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be
Slip slip slip away
Or you will sink sink sink with me
I'm not good enough for anyone or anything
That I wanna be

My hands outstretched
Why wont you take it
I'll die out here in the cold
Cut off my tongue I don't want to hear myself talk
And let me get swallowed by the mold
I only ever wanted one thing
But I took it upon myself to ruin everything
I only ever wanted one thing
But I took it upon myself to ruin everything
Please take your hand out of my chest
And try to put it back how you found it
Its my own fault for thinking I deserved the best
I should have kept my hopes grounded

Lets talk about us for a second
Did you ever care to begin with
I know I breathe down your neck
But all I wanted to get
Was a sincere answer
And I cant, remember
Why I even fell for you anymore
And now you've closed the door
The truth will set you free
Why is it every time I think I'm over you
You just so happen to seem interested again
Every time I try to walk away
You're standing there with a detour sign
We push and we pull but I'm done making a fool
Out of myself as your backup plan
We push and we pull but I'm not over you
And you use it to your advantage
If you'd have lost the fucking attitude
Then I might have had the patience to try and continue
Nothing ever seems to please you
But you're the one that gets to say we're through
I know that I'm a piece of work
And I know that this shit hurts
But you never even tried to learn
And now I'm none of your concern
Anger is a good thing to feel
But never a good way to respond
You didn't respond while you were feeling like that did you
No
I
Never actually told her how it all made me feel
I think that would be a good place to start

Her lips taste like forbidden fruit
But now I think I've sealed my fate
A blood pact marked with a kiss
Now it's a curse I can not break
The serpents come and take me away
And I look up and ask why me
But even after all of my efforts
This is the way it has to be
When you want something for so long
You lose sight of where you belong
Tunnel vision takes its toll
Because my flesh will break before my soul
Stupid
That's all I am I didn't have a plan and I doomed it
I didn't think you'd take my everything and abuse it
But I try to think and everything is linked to you and
You could have let me down but you kept me around and
I'm still in love with these feelings of there being an us but at the cost of what
I bet you wish I'd drop everything the second you're ready but
You didn't care in the first place
And threw it all back in my face
Cause the stain on your lips and my hands on your hips left me with this distaste
I told the truth now set me free
That you were never any good for me
I wish you would say your piece
I know you're good and done with me
Her lips taste like forbidden fruit
And now the second kiss hurts much worse
Cause after your eyes have seen the truth
Your brain wont ever show remorse
I try and struggle but the serpents hold on
Out on the streets with no where to go
I wander aimlessly amidst the salty air
Replaying you telling me give up hope
But don't let me fall
But don't let me fall
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me
I fell in love eight years ago
Now I cant seem to do anything to shake your ghost
I think you left your shackles on my tongue that night
Now I only speak your name
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me fall
I fell in love eight years ago
Now I cant seem to do anything to shake your ghost
I think you left your shackles on my tongue that night
Now I only speak your name
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me fall
I never said I would be alright
Only that I would get by
But don't let me
Her lips taste like forbidden fruit
But now it's time I got over you
The truth will set you free
But at what cost
Come on
Don't you feel better now that it's all off your chest
No I don't
Well
Why don't we
Try again
Ain't that a kick in the head
