I could have gAbone to such great leBbngths
Mislead the diCmstances it tFmook to follow suit
Burn in eAbffigy, no you’re no spBbectacle of eCmmpathy
AbWashing both my Bbhands just to rid of yEbou

I've got a lot to lose and you’re starting to bend the truth
[Chorus]
EbYour eAbyes are so grey
EbTunnel Cmvision, I only sBbee you tEbhis wAbay
And it won’t chCmange
Taking sBbedatives, repEbetitive

I said wanted my own space
Whether or not I shared it wEbith yCmou
I was a bFmook and you read one page
I was overlooked
Can’t Abunderstand the knoBbts in yCmour noose
