the truth

if this sounds familiar, i took the points of the song "the truth" by staind and rewrote them for me....



it's 3 am and i can't sleep/but i don't care tonight
i've blinking back the tears/that seem to numb the silent fight

every time you try to speak/i only hear one phrase a loud 
and i can't turn the other cheek/you can't help how it comes out

so when did you decide /to burn the bridges and lie
cuz that's not what got us here
and honestly, i don't know how you couldn't see/exactly what you meant to me
suppose i was just another to clear

it's 8 am and still no sleep/as i stare across the room
though your body lays beside me/i can predict your every move

cuz everytime i try to speak/nothing ever seems to come out
this time i won't turn the other cheek/so i leave without a sound

so when did you decide /to burn the bridges and lie
cuz that's not what got us here
and honestly, i don't know how you couldn't see/exactly what you meant to me
suppose you never were sincere...
....
enough to ever wonder why/i told you secrets of what she'd try
your true dedication shows/ you walked out and left us closed
and all the promises you made to me/they seem to fade with your innocent memory
leaving me with ego blows/ a disappointment these words can't show

when this game of lust is over/will you regret what you could have had
will you remember our last moment/ and everything that i said...
...
so when did you decide /to burn the bridges and lie
cuz that's not what got us here
and honestly, i don't know how you couldn't see/exactly what you meant to me
but ill turn my back in tears...
