Well,
I wasn't exactly alone when she left me
Figured I wasn't unhappy to live with my own world
And I tend to make my mountains out of molehills
And I've always made my goddesses out of you girls
I've always had the chance to say it
I never got to scream
when I drowned in your sea
And you know I've always been lonely so I guess I got used to it
But I guess I got used to dragging you down with me
So my sandcastle has been waiting for the waves
And you know I carry lost love like some tragic disease
And I wonder why she never came back to put out the flames
When I called her,
this was what she said to me
It makes more sense to stay on the water
Not that hard to sing about being hurt
It's kinda lucrative to write a love song
Cause everybody else can't get enough
It's always easier to be victimized
Only when the one who got you burned It's
kinda funny how things turned out for
you
Cause everybody knows the truth's just not
enough for the show Cause everybody knows the truth's just not
enough for the show
When I'm away,
I'm gonna die someday
So I might as well go down, crashing and burning
Oh my lord,
can you help me out here?
Oh my lord,
why don't you just pick up the
phone?
Oh my lord,
why did you forsake me?
You know I carried my cross,
I was bound in sin's chains
Oh my lord,
he just doesn't listen But when I was on my knees,
this was what he
said to me It makes more sense to stay on the water
Not that hard to sing about being hurt
It's kinda lucrative to write a love song
Don't you think?
Cause everybody else can't get enough
It's always easier to be victimized
Only when the one who got you burned
It's kinda funny how things turned out for you
Cause everybody knows the truth's just not enough for the show
Cause everybody knows the truth's just not enough
for
the show
