I see your lips are the staircase to your soul Now you're fighting your feelings And fearing the shame that you sown All the times that I blindly followed you Can't believe that I never saw the truth I don't know what to do
You locked your arms around my mouth I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue I scream and shout, tear my lungs out I don't know what to do, I can't get over you
They tell you what you want to hear To feed the attention you hold so dear Tread lightly across these lines Playing again and again in my mind
There's a painful progress building you up stone by stone There's a certain satisfaction in watching you fall from your throne So pardon me, avoid the possibility Of unraveling the patchwork in the way that you think
Why can't I see the truth? I don't know what to do
You locked your arms around my mouth I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue I scream and shout, tear my lungs out I don't know what to do, I can't get over you
I'll sleep peacefully Knowing I pierced your skin Despite all your walls I still found my way in
I'm not another fall out, boy did we try I may be a notch in your bedpost But your life is a lie
Why can't I see the truth? I don't know what to do
You locked your arms around my mouth I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue I scream and shout, tear my lungs out I don't know what to do, I can't get over you
Oh no, I don't know what to do And I, I can't get over you
I'll tell you what you need to hear So close your lips and listen, dear I think it's time that I said goodbye Play it again and again in your mind
