Somebody's Daughter

I'm done picking up after you
Don't need another lame excuse
We finally hit the credits, now I'll make the edits
You wrote it and I'll sell it
I never really asked for much
I never asked for more than love
Your pen creates the tension, did I even mention?
The ending was pathetic

A penny for my thoughts, or everything I'm not
Go ahead and pick apart the lyrics that I start
The words are razor sharp, I got 'em from your heart
It must be really hard
Must be really hard

Where were you?
When everything was broken, tears could fill an ocean
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
But its harder when you know that he was with somebody's daughter
When all the water froze, then going through the motions
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
Now I'm crying to my father 'bout
Somebody else's daughter

I find it hard to hate her now
Hoping it'll fade to background
Of the part that's really hurting, maybe by the time we're thirty
Life will show a little mercy
It's not like me to tear a girl down
You make me fuckin hate myself
What goes around will always come around
Find another soul for you to sell

I feel it on my skin, the music you forget
My walls are paper thin, I feel you coming in
I can't even begin to ask you where you been
I know you'll lie again
I know you'll lie again

Where were you?
When everything was broken, tears could fill an ocean
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
But its harder when you know that he was with somebody's daughter
When all the water froze, then going through the motions
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
Now I'm crying to my father 'bout
Somebody else's daughter
Daughter

We'll fight again tonight
And then I'll give you time
Just for you to decide
How much you have to lie
You'll tell me I'm insane
I'll beg for you to stay
You never can explain
The things you never say

Where were you?
When everything was broken, tears could fill an ocean
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
But its harder when you know that he was with somebody's daughter
When all the water froze, then going through the motions
Why'd I even bother, I jumped into the water
Now I'm crying to my father 'bout
Somebody else's daughter
