Tell a lie, that's enough
Give me a story you've made up
And I'll forgive you

I don't care what you said I said
It's all in your head
I'll never get you

And you're talking these things through
Like you know what you've been through
But there's not a lot of reason
In the things that we believe in
So I'll believe in you

I am on the outside of truth
And I'm looking in on you
But you're staining this town with fighting
You're staining this town with fighting
And I'm honest as a photo booth
I'm just playing off of you
But you're leaving me fast as lightning
You're leaving me just to spite me

Babe, it must be hard living in a castle
Counting daddy's money must be a hassle
Proudly you can't abide
I probably should live a lie
But I've been taught that there's something
More to living life than knowing scores
I'm proud to say I'm honest
Proud to say I'm right

I am on the outside of truth
And I'm looking in on you
But you're staining this town with fighting
You're staining this town with fighting
And I'm honest as a photo booth
I'm just playing off of you
But you're leaving me fast as lightning
You're leaving me just to spite me

Time out, I don't need this drama
But I will take you back any day
I will take you back any day

I'm out, all out of things to argue
But I will take you on any day
I will take you on

I am on the outside of truth
And I'm looking in on you
But you're staining this town with fighting
You're staining this town with fighting
And I'm honest as a photo booth
I'm just playing off of you
But you're leaving me fast as lightning
You're leaving me just to spite me

    I love the emotion he puts in every line. This song just helps me vent my frustration. I walk to the ocean and scream the lyrics as if there will never be a tomorrow and as if my life is falling apart all over again.
