lyrics

Cold blooded scoundrel you are my friend
Such a sad, sad story of a loveless life
That hope could never bend
Why did you listen to the words that I said
Why did you feed upon the lies that I fed
It seems a waste of my time to try and piece together
What was in his head
Oh it's forever carved in stone
So sorry I said what was said
The words weren't my own
I left you down on your knees
Knocked down to size
It's different from what I believe
A result of disguise
Dark eyes are silent, can he speak? Can he say?
And the fear of never knowing just what he thinks
Keeps these walls he's built growing stronger everyday
And now the paper says that he was loved
And now his mother says he loves god above
It seems a waste of my time to try and piece together
What was never there
Oh it's forever carved in stone
So sorry I said what was said
The words weren't my own
I left you down on your knees
Knocked down to size
It's different from what I believe
A result of disguise
