Gimme a Break

You made it up

Thought it was the first time

Swear to god

I was seeing double that night

A hell I can't describe

We crossed another line

You made it up

Little fib you told yourself

A little slip

Turned to something permanent

A little false

Big or small, I caught you in the lie

The temperature

Is heating up and you just want to cry, cry

But that's the way you play

Give up much too late

Gimme a break

I've been working hard enough

Just a little sympathy

Is all I ever wanted out of ya

I better watch what I say

Before I give myself another problem

Oh, a reason more to run
