Crooked Pictures

It's cold in here again You left your window open like this heart inside my chest As I sink into this bed, I feel the warmth leaving my breath The crooked pictures on these walls must know you best But I wouldn't know Your lies speak a thousand truths It seems dark but the light's on I second guess but I know you're headstrong You never shy from the deep end You're always here to watch me descend Nurture your pretense I understand it's just a defense You always jump in the deep end You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned I'm not much at first glance Just another man with an awkward stance Though you're never one to dwell on the details I can't help thinking that you'll never get a better chance So take my word There's many more who would say it worse And it's absurd To know that you'll end up first But I wouldn't know Your lies speak a thousand truths It seems dark but the light's on I second guess but I know you're headstrong You never shy from the deep end You're always here to watch me descend Nurture your pretense I understand it's just a defense You always jump in the deep end You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned And I won't lie, I am one to pry I always knew you'd be the one to flat-line my insides I don't expect nothing more than what is meant Those crooked pictures speak a story best unsaid It seems dark but the light's on I second guess but I know you're headstrong You never shy from the deep end You're always here to watch me descend Nurture your pretense I understand it's just a defense You always jump in the deep end You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned It seems dark but the light's on I second guess but I know you're headstrong You never shy from the deep end You leave me sinking as you leave me condemned
