Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I guess you never know

Someone you think you know

Can't see the knife when you're too close, too close

It scars forever when

Someone you called a friend

Shows you the truth can be so cold, so cold

[Verse 2]

I wiped the dirt off your name

With the shirt off my back

I thought that you'd do the same

But you didn't do that

[Chorus]

You

Said I'm the one who's wanted

For all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down

I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners

And fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down

And look at you now

And look at you now

[Verse 3]

How do you sleep at night?

No one to hide behind

Betrayed every alibi you had

You had

You had every chance to make amends

'Stead you got drunk on bitterness

And you still claim that you're innocent

It's sad

[Chorus]

That you

Said I'm the one who's wanted

For all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down

I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners

And fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down

And look at you now

[Refrain]

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls

[Chorus]

And you

Said I'm the one who's wanted

For all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down

I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners

And fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down

[Refrain]

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls

[Outro]

And you—
