Tell Me Twice

You opened your mouth and the words just tumbled out
Like marbles on the pavement
And scattered like a nest of flies
And every thought you'd bottled up inside, no matter how small
Stole to the cracks of the walls of your living room to hide
As part of living monument
And you don't have to say it twice
I was there for the first time
You don't have to tell me lies
You opened your mouth and the words just stuttered out
A poor player in an unrehearsed part
Bruised ego passed off as broken heart
The audience an afterthought
And you don't have to say it twice
I was there for the first time
You don't have to tell me lies
She comes around, she says 'I'm over it now'
You come around but baby I'm over it now
So just turn around
And you don't have to say it twice
You don't have to tell me lies
