This song and dance is getting old
only repeating what I’m told
a friend of a friend told me once
don’t believe everything that you hear
only half of what you see
it’s a small town
it’s a big sound
like you never heard
and you’ve always had your way with words

And the big lie that solves everything
is hanging upon your lips again
and I see how everything I’ve been saying’s
coming back to haunt me in the end
and I don’t know if I’m ready for this again.

I know it’s only in my head
not really hearing what you said
put an ear to the ground
put the words in my mouth
all the sideways looks
never mattered until now
it’s a long ride
it’s a downside
it’s what it’s all about
and I think that you better sit this out

[chorus]

I never thought you’d be so bold
not just repeating what I’m told
if I had more cash would you still turn away?
if I had better friends would that convince you to stay?
if I had some ambition would you come back today?
it wasn’t supposed to end this way

[chorus]
