Excuses

I came into your town but you weren’t even there

Like you said you would and I do, I really care.

I pretend it doesn’t hurt, I smile because it’s easy

Don’t ask me what’s wrong, but there’s enough without me telling

Everyone has a reason, everyone has a cold

Stairs that never lead and a face that never shows

you play till you get caught and you’re selfish till you’re dead

you’re speaking way too fast and you’ve forgotten what you said

Oh, no I’m acting like a fool

Oh, no it’s hard to face the truth

Oh, no I’m acting like a fool

Oh, no I’m scared of losing you

I can’t really blame, I’ve been there before

Meant to call your name but kept silent till the morn’

I know your mama’s sick and you’re scared of poverty

and I’m speaking like a child, petty and ugly

You can tell me lies and I won’t even know it

You could tell the truth and you would only hear it

You can tell me lies and I won’t even know it

You could tell the truth and noone really cares
