Carolina Waters

I just figured out my mind's a spectacle
That I'm in deeper than the Carolina Waters
You should know this ain't just textbook rebellion
My case to this day confuses all the doctors

Well, maybe I whispered things I shouldn't have
But those whispers soon became the loudest hollers
Her decibels above his decibels above his friends
Boy I've gone off the rails, who let me be conductor

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a thief and I don't mean it
Isn't that quite a shame
Well please in my defense, in my heart it all makes sense
And your laundry was not my aim

Everybody hurts me or I double them the blade
Girl, I'm higher than the Carolina waters
Messes are my thing and I gotta clean it
But the services they gave me no offers

Maybe it's a test and I gotta pass
Or it's my sentence I deserve, no chance for prayers
"Ask no questions," I am told
"And you shall receive all the answers"

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a thief and I don't mean it
Isn't that quite a shame
Well please in my defense, in my heart it all makes sense
And your laundry was not my aim

Maybe you'd be better off if you just butt out
'Cause I know I'm skinny dipping in hot water
Pulling punches can't be done, and it surely won't hurt less
It just means I'll close my eyes when you get closer

I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a thief and I don't mean it
Isn't that quite a shame
Well please in my defense, in my heart it all makes sense
And your laundry was not my aim
