I see your lips are the staircase to your soul

Now you're fighting your feelings

And fearing the shame that you sown

All the times that I blindly followed you

Can't believe that I never saw the truth

I don't know what to do



You locked your arms around my mouth

I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue

I scream and shout, tear my lungs out

I don't know what to do, I can't get over you



They tell you what you want to hear

To feed the attention you hold so dear

Tread lightly across these lines

Playing again and again in my mind



There's a painful progress building you up stone by stone

There's a certain satisfaction I watching you fall from your throne

So pardon me, avoid the possibility

Of unraveling the patchwork in the way that you think



Why can't I see the truth?

I don't know what to do



You locked your arms around my mouth

I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue

I scream and shout, tear my lungs out

I don't know what to do, I can't get over you



I'll sleep peacefully

Knowing I pierced your skin

Despite all your walls

I still found my way in



I'm not another fall out, boy did we try

I may be a notch in your bedpost

But your life is a lie



Why can't I see the truth?

I don't know what to do



You locked your arms around my mouth

I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue

I scream and shout, tear my lungs out

I don't know what to do, I can't get over you



Oh no, I don't know what to do

And I, I can't get over you



I'll tell you what you need to hear

So close your lips and listen, dear

I think it's time that I said goodbye

Play it again and again in your mind
