Throw your weekends away
For something I couldn't change
The line it slipped out my mind
And fell right back on the page
You speak like thunder, I'm still
I'm well rehearsed but I freeze
I catch your eyes like a kill
They follow me, they cant wait
Good luck I cannot think straight
The curves, the lines on your face
Lights up, I pray that you will
Can't take my mind off your wave
Was it something I said to you
Or are you just good in that way?
You tell your story through words
I read your voice so afraid
Stop pretending, they can't make you smile
Sick of listening to you in denial
Wasting away in the curtains, a mild cue
To suspend disbelief within you
And like father like son
Third time's the charm when you're number one
Tried to hold on after you said, "we're done"
So you gave me the Knife and said "Wilt thou be gone?"
Now, I understand your reasons
You don't wanna soap opera, you change with the seasons
Sick of playing roles that ain't have no meaning
Your life is a stage and you're the one leading now
You don't believe in yourself
Until you're in front of everyone else
What you see in the world won't save you
I believe in you, sure, but I hate to
Stop pretending, they can't make you smile
Sick of listening to you in denial
Wasting away in the curtains, a mild cue
To suspend disbelief within you
Stop pretending, they can't make you smile
Sick of listening to you in denial
Wasting wasting my days, I guess that's just what I will do
I'll always believe in you
