All Along

The Offspring

Deep inside secret¹s burning
I Should have known all the while what¹s true
I went along, to fool myself
Can¹t go on, I can¹t escape it

All along
I think I really knew
It was there in the words unspoken
All along
Still believed in you
Now I stand here betrayed and broken

Close my eyes from the burning
All along all the while it¹s true
Take it on, or turn your back
Either way, you can¹t escape it

All along
I think I really knew
It was there in the words unspoken
All along
Still believed in you
Now I stand here betrayed and broken

    General CommentLooks like his gut was telling him she was gonna dump him or she is cheating but he went along to fool himself and close his eyes, hope it isnt happening but in the end he is left betrayed and broken cause it is happening.

    General CommentDex is a great songwriter, he is one of the few artists anymore that can write a break-up song that isn't annoying.

    General CommentCome Out Swinging isn't a break up song, but I know what you mean.
