Fly on the Wall

Kept my dying hopes alive
Played that movie out in my mind
Then hesitation comes to strike
I'm bottled up and dead inside
Made it work like once or twice
Now they expect it every time
So I resort to telling lies
Serial killer of the time
And my worthless life

I've been down before
I've been down before

Traces of an old mistake
Ruins another situation
Switching sides and saving face
To undergo a transformation
You'd think I'd think of an excuse
A reason or an explanation
But I owe nothing to you
Another victim of your
Manipulation

I've been down before
I've been down before
So now as we move on I will not be more
Than a shadow on the wall
I've been down before

Nothing's making any sense
Who's got the time to even care
When I burnt up with the bridge
I left you nothing to spare
Getting lost along the way
Now that's just come to be expected
As for the thoughts I can't escape
I'll think of them another day
From a new perspective

When I've been down before
I've been down before
So now as we go on I will not be more
Than a fly on the wall
I've been down before
