Well I've tried to frame these thoughts inside a storybook ending Well they've been drawn and we're all caught in this Trap of just pretending That everything's been kept so far out of reach But I never paid attention to the words that they all preached Have they told you talk is cheap? So keep on talking like you think you know what I hold deep It's time we break apart the spell and all the secrets that we keep Our ghosts come out full force when I've been least expecting And haunting every one of my dreams in a fight I'm not defending And they tried to warn me right from the start Yet I followed intuition and wound up with so much less heart Have they told you talk is cheap? So keep on talking like you think you know what I hold deep It's time we break apart the spell and all the secrets that we keep Your presence should have no effect here anymore I've seen straight through your shit and I've never been so sore So give me back the last ten years And with the pride I still have left I promise I won't become another victim of your theft Your picture's burning and I'm still learning how to keep my distance Your picture's burning and I'm still learning how to keep my distance I'm gonna keep my distance
