Left with Nothing

I never wanted to say how I became the way I am
But I stayed too long and I drank so much
I got so comfortable
In my own skin, for the first time, in a long time
It got so real, I told you things, I haven't even told my wife

I prayed for the best, but prepared for the worst
Your trembling now, your so scared of the words
I never thought I could speak anything but honestly
You should've known, you gave it away
Secrets aren't safe they'll find a way
We shouldn't even be in this situation

Wait for the truth, you shouldn't have to
No one should ever lie to you
But what defines a lie?
Can I read between some lines
Honesty is the policy
That's what mom and dad said to me
When I was a little kid
Who thought I'd grow to be such a prick?

I prayed for the best, but prepared for the worst
Your trembling now, your so scared of the words
I never thought I could speak anything but honestly
You should've known, you gave it away
Secrets aren't safe they'll find a way
We shouldn't even be in this situation

Wanted it all, I left with nothing
Gave it the best, I left with nothing
Wanted it all, I left with nothing
Gave it the best, I left with nothing
Wanted it all, I left with nothing
Gave it the best, I left with nothing
Wanted it all, I left with nothing

I prayed for the best, but prepared for the worst
Your trembling now, your so scared of the words
I never thought I could speak anything but honestly
You should've known, you gave it away
Secrets aren't safe they'll find a way
We shouldn't even be in this situation
I prayed for the best, but prepared for the worst
Your trembling now, your so scared of the words
I never thought I could speak anything but honestly
You should've known, you gave it away
Secrets aren't safe they'll find a way
We shouldn't even be in this situation
