Family Man

Head high, no one knows your secret
You smile but don't feel a thing at all
Don't know that I know about it
Live life hiding what happened
Do you even know what her name was?
You lie to make her happy

Where you goin' at night when the lights are down low
Street lights come on, you hide from the glow
Where you going?
Where you going?
Where you going?
It's time to stand up family man

Thought you could do it without all of the thoughts haunting you
You think if she found out she'd be fine standing by you?
Tell yourself it'll be fine, look me dead in the eyes
I know what you're doing, don't make me do it

Heartbeat starts getting faster
Eyes watching around every turn
You fall into paranoia on your own terms
You laugh, it's impossible
No way that this ruined your life
You lied to make yourself happy, nice try

She's asking questions, like where you going?
You're freaking out and there's no way she won't know and
She's gonna know and, she's gonna know and
How could she know? How could she know?
How could she know?

Thought you could do it without all of the thoughts haunting you
You think if she found out she'd be fine standing by you?
Tell yourself it'll be fine, look me dead in the eyes
I know what you're doing, don't make me do it

Pack your things, head outta town, and never look back
Say bye to the kids, say sorry that their mom can't live with their dad
How's it feel now that it's done, with all the damage, what you've become
Nothing but regret and wishing to take it back

What were you doing? What are you doing?
How could you do this? Why did you do this?
What are, what are, what are you doing?

Thought you could do it without all of the thoughts haunting you
You think if she found out she'd be fine standing by you?
Tell yourself it'll be fine, look me dead in the eyes
I know what you're doing, don't make me do it
Don't make me do it, family man

So tell me what's going on in your head
You've made it and lied down on your bed
The smell of the roses have rotted now
Replaying the moment she screamed 'get out!'
You were broken and lonely, she was by your side
She caught you, left with no place to hide
Wonder if you'll make it out alive

Family man
