Pride

You left a mark on my face

And brought a dozen red flags in a vase

You thought everything would be okay

But it's not okay

But nobody saw the other side

You turn into Jekyll, and I'd run and hide

And I'd come back, I don't know why

I don't know why

You'll take whiskey, you'll take wine

You'll take anything as long as it was mine

And you choke it down and chase it with a lie

The only thing that you can't swallow is your pride

Oh

Are you insane, or are you brilliant?

Am I crazy or just resilient?

I'll never know, and you'll never tell

The kids don't know that truth, maybe that's just as well

You'll take whiskey, you'll take wine

You'll take anything as long as it was mine

And you choke it down and chase it with a lie

The only thing that you can't swallow is your pride

Mmm-mmm

Even now that I'm leavin'

You won't say you're wrong

And you'll never believe it

That I'm movin' on without you

Yeah, I wrote this song about you

Yeah, I wrote this song about you

You'll take whiskey, you'll take wine

You'll take anything as long as it was mine

And you choke it down and chase it with a lie

The only thing that you can't swallow is your pride

Oh

Ooh
