Lyrics

You have an urgent tale to tell
A manuscript of rags to sell
You shine a crooked light on us
We’re shadow puppets in a book
Am I the source of your disgust?
Or are you bruised from deeper cuts?
I never aimed to break your shell
You were damaged by someone else

Blame me if you must
Don’t drag me through the mud

You and me, we’ll never see eye to eye
When tempers rise, it’s madness
Fight or flee, leave me be
I’m tired, friend. It’s not the same
We’re past these trap doors and lies
So just say goodbye

Our conversation’s a shade of gray
You picked the words that made your case
Twisted in a echo box, fired back in random shots
The fable that you shout in coughs
It ripples far from my response
You feel abandoned and betrayed
But it’s you who walked away

Hurt me if you want
But don’t drag us to the ground

You and me, we’ll never see eye to eye
When tempers rise, it’s madness
Fight or flee, leave me be
I’m tired, friend. It’s not the same
We’re past these trap doors and lies
So just say goodbye
So just say goodbye
