Wake up
You're gettin' high on your own supply
Oh, baby, you're still alive when you could've died, oh
The world is not around because of you
You know I'm not around because of you

You've got a mouthful of diamonds
And a pocketful of secrets
I know you're never telling anyone
Because the patterns they control your mind
Those patterns take away my time
Hello, goodbye

Wasted
You tell the truth when you could've lied
And troubles are on the rise 'cause you're in disguise, oh
And if it isn't me
Then pack your bags and leave
I wish I could believe blue devils won't take you back
Out to the salty sea

You've got a mouthful of diamonds
And a pocketful of secrets
I know you're never telling anyone
Because the patterns they control your mind
Those patterns take away my time
Hello,
Goodbye

I wish I could believe

    can't get enough of this song!

    anyways..i think it's about an abusive relationship, where the girl's boyfriend is a drug addict or has some serious violent tendencies. the boyfriend kept telling the girl that he loves her and that he's going to change, knowing that wasn't true, she got fed up and left.
