Won't Lie
I've calculated the distance
From my steady hand to your heart
And I honed the blade on my anger
Now I stand behind you in the dark
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time
'Cause I won't lie
No, I won't lie
For you anymore
So turn around, friend, and face me
Don't tell me now you're surprised
Your lovers all will desert you
Let me ease that pain with this knife
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time
'Cause I won't lie
No, I won't lie for you
And I know I'm born with a prophet's curse
Never see the good, only see the worst
But in time, the snake will split his skin
To reveal another snake within
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For the final time
(And I know I'm born with a prophet's curse)
(Never see the good, only see the worst)
(But in time, the snake will split his skin)
(To reveal another snake within)
From my steady hand to your heart
And I honed the blade on my anger
Now I stand behind you in the dark
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time
'Cause I won't lie
No, I won't lie
For you anymore
So turn around, friend, and face me
Don't tell me now you're surprised
Your lovers all will desert you
Let me ease that pain with this knife
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For one last time
'Cause I won't lie
No, I won't lie for you
And I know I'm born with a prophet's curse
Never see the good, only see the worst
But in time, the snake will split his skin
To reveal another snake within
You're breathing in
And breathing out
For the final time
(And I know I'm born with a prophet's curse)
(Never see the good, only see the worst)
(But in time, the snake will split his skin)
(To reveal another snake within)
