Veneer

It's the lies that matter Join the party My veneer is softly parting Softest spoken person I know How will I survive tomorrow? I'm a hazard, I cause problems Losing color, end of autumn I unravel right before you Hard to say I still adore you Oh no, oh no Two thirds to the filter and halfway home I remember what you wanted when we started to dance I'd remember what you told me if you gave me a chance Oh boy, I'm out I'm sorry I was scared, but I am married to doubt I am only just beginning, I am only a kid A slippery slope, I only knew when I slid Why did I pretend Like that feeling went away? I wasted so much time today And I stay high upon the fence I missed you yesterday I've got so much left to say I know, I know I'm totally confused, I didn't want you to go I'm quiet, I'm too quiet, it's too quiet to sleep If you're leaving, won't you tell me? Won't you save me a seat? Oh man, alright I just thought it was obvious, I thought I was right But I'm only now discovering the truth of the matter Walking on glass, I should've known it would shatter Why did I pretend Like that feeling went away? I wasted so much time today And I stay high upon the fence I missed you yesterday I've got so much left to say It's the lies that matter It's the lies that matter Truth is carnal Kill today, forgive tomorrow Goes unspoken If it's all over, tell me surely Don't forget you still adore me Why did I pretend Like that feeling went away? I wasted so much time today And I stay high upon the fence I missed you yesterday I've got so much left to say
