Excuses

Came into your town,
You weren't even there
Like you said you were
And I do, I really care.

Pretend it doesn't hurt,
Smile because it's easy.
Don't ask me what's wrong,
It's enough without me telling you

Everyone has a reason,
Everyone has a cold.
Stairs that never lead
And a face they never show.

Play 'til you get caught,
You're selfish 'til you're dead.
You're speaking way too fast,
You've forgotten what you said.

But you said oooh no,
Acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
It's hard to face the truth.
Oooh no,
I'm still acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
I'm just scared of losing you.

I felt the same,
Been there before.
Becked to call your name,
But kept silent 'til the morning.

I know your mama's sick,
You're scared of poverty.
But you're speaking like a child,
Petty and ugly.

Play 'til you get caught,
You're selfish 'til you're dead.
YOu're speaking way too fast,
You've forgotten what you said.

But you said oooh no,
Acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
It's hard to face the truth.
Oooh no,
I'm still acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
I'm just scared of losing you.

You can tell me lies and I won't even know it,
You can tell the truth and you would only hear
You can tell me lies and I won't even know it,
You can tell the truth and no one really cares.

You can tell me lies and I won't even know it,
You can tell the truth and you would only hear
You can tell me lies and I won't even know it,
You can tell the truth and no one really cares.

Oooh no,
I'm acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
It's just hard to face the truth.
Oooh no,
I'm still acting like a fool.
Oooh no,
I'm just scared of losing you.
