You wrote the story that I tell The road I walk was drawn by you With false conception You don’t believe in compromise And all that I see in your eyes Is my reflection
Why did you try to make me cry? You told me long ago to be true That’s what I tried to do
You wrote the story that I tell The road I walk was drawn by you With false conception You don’t believe in compromise The only love that’s in your eyes Is my reflection
Why did I pray for you to stay When I only ever wanted you to go? Couldn’t tell you, couldn’t tell you so.
You wrote the story that I tell The road I walk was drawn by you With false conception You don’t believe in compromise You only seem to use those eyes For warped perception
Why did you try to make me lie? You told me long ago, “Be true.” Be true.
Couldn’t tell you, could not tell you Couldn’t tell you so Should’ve told you, should’ve told you Just go. Just go.
