A Suitable Lie Lyrics
A dark room day dream and a stumble
Walking down the hall
And I don’t deserve all that I have learned
There's crows in the yard and a mirror
Shining on the wall
My reflection is all
That I understand about myself
And it seems I destroyed
All that you thought that I was
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
A suitable lie and a bottle
My prescription-padded room
And you don’t know how we came to this
Now and again, I’ll remember
Your picturesque mornings
When things seemed to fit
Like we hoped they always would work out
And I’ve learned to believe
That there must be something better
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
And it seems I destroyed
All that you thought that I was
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
And, in my defense, I loved you
Walking down the hall
And I don’t deserve all that I have learned
There's crows in the yard and a mirror
Shining on the wall
My reflection is all
That I understand about myself
All that you thought that I was
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
My prescription-padded room
And you don’t know how we came to this
Now and again, I’ll remember
Your picturesque mornings
When things seemed to fit
Like we hoped they always would work out
That there must be something better
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
All that you thought that I was
Truly wanna change
Though we know that we’ll never
But, in my defense, I have tried
