Crooked Pictures
It's cold in here again
You left your window open like this heart inside my chest
As I sink into this bed, I feel the warmth leaving my breath
The crooked pictures on these walls must know you best
But I wouldn't know
Your lies speak a thousand truths
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
I'm not much at first glance
Just another man with an awkward stance
Though you're never one to dwell on the details
I can't help thinking that you'll never get a better chance
So take my word
There's many more who would say it worse
And it's absurd
To know that you'll end up first
But I wouldn't know
Your lies speak a thousand truths
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
And I won't lie, I am one to pry
I always knew you'd be the one to flat-line my insides
I don't expect nothing more than what is meant
Those crooked pictures speak a story best unsaid
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
You left your window open like this heart inside my chest
As I sink into this bed, I feel the warmth leaving my breath
The crooked pictures on these walls must know you best
But I wouldn't know
Your lies speak a thousand truths
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
I'm not much at first glance
Just another man with an awkward stance
Though you're never one to dwell on the details
I can't help thinking that you'll never get a better chance
So take my word
There's many more who would say it worse
And it's absurd
To know that you'll end up first
But I wouldn't know
Your lies speak a thousand truths
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
And I won't lie, I am one to pry
I always knew you'd be the one to flat-line my insides
I don't expect nothing more than what is meant
Those crooked pictures speak a story best unsaid
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You're always here to watch me descend
Nurture your pretense
I understand it's just a defense
You always jump in the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
It seems dark but the light's on
I second guess but I know you're headstrong
You never shy from the deep end
You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
