lyrics

I've got my hands in my pockets like I've got something to hide
And I do as the smell of something burning fills the room
And I've got all my fingers crossed
Prayin' to God my head doesn't explode
And that no one finds me out

I've got my hands in my pockets like I've got something to hide
And it stings as the blisters on my knuckles start to bleed
And stand behind this wall I hear their whispers and they all, they're all coming for me
I swear they're coming for me

Secrets made me who I am but pretty soon they'll break me
And these shadows that I lead become a part of me
And my heart won't let them be
And I wish that I was free

Broken promises
Cheap pearl necklaces
Boxes full of notes
When the front door opens all the lights go out

(Chorus)
I still cannot believe the things that I put up with
I still cannot believe the things I got away with

Some things I don't remember
Some I can't forget

(Chorus)
