If I'm Being Honest

I know it seems like
I don't see the pain that's on your face.
If I changed the subject, it's in case
you thought it was time for me to come clean.
But it's not like I've got the right
to take more time.
--If I'm being honest
I'm afraid to lose us again
'cause when I wasn't looking
I became somebody else.
If I have to say it,
I'm not far from hating myself
'cause I knew how you felt
the whole time.--
I remember the color of the flowers
you left for me that night.
Sprinkled on my pillow, painting pollen with my tears
knowing I'd never make things right.
But we went along pretending
my weekends were spent with friends.
--If I'm being honest
I'm afraid to lose us again
'cause when I wasn't looking
I became somebody else.
If I have to say it,
I'm not far from hating myself
'cause I knew how you felt
the whole time.--
Oooh, I can't say
Oooh, I should have stayed
'cause I'd be running anyway
Anyway.
--If I'm being honest
I'm afraid to lose us again
'cause when I wasn't looking
I became somebody else.
If I have to say it,
I'm not far from hating myself
'cause I knew how you felt
the whole time.--

Juliet

I'm walking on eggshells,
somehow every step I've taken's been for you.
What happened to free will?
Somewhere down the line I gave it up.
You were so amazing, can you blame me?
All I ever wanted was for you to say
you're proud of me.
It's bullshit,
I see it now.
--You won't stop until I'm down here begging,
Juliet, get out of my head.
You're just fine until your plan's unwinding
Juliet, get out of my head.--
You like the sound of your own voice,
pushing your opinions 'til things get dicey;
then, it's all on me
and you still get to be right.
--You won't stop until I'm down here begging,
Juliet, get out of my head.
You're just fine until your plan's unwinding
Juliet, get out of my head.--
Can you believe?
I really thought I wanted all those things
Can you believe?
I really thought I wanted all those things
You tell me I'm not living outside my comfort zone
Well here I am,
here I am.
--You won't stop until I'm down here begging,
Juliet, get out of my head.
You're just fine until your plan's unwinding
Juliet, get out of my head.--
--You won't stop until I'm down here begging,
Juliet, get out of my head.
You're just fine until your plan's unwinding
Juliet, get out of my head.--

Under the Covers

It's hard, we all know
but somewhere down the road
the easy way drew you in
so inviting and it's starting to wear you down.
You're holding back
for someone else.
--There's nothing wrong with you
except the voice you've given others.
Must be nice under the covers
where it's warm.
It's not enough to say
that no one's gonna hurt you
'cause the battle's so much better
when you're bleeding.--
Can't you see? it's happening:
the years are piling up
but you haven't got approval
from the people you want to love you
because they don't.
They're holding out
for something else.
--There's nothing wrong with you
except the voice you've given others.
Must be nice under the covers
where it's warm.
It's not enough to say
that no one's gonna hurt you
'cause the battle's so much better
when you're bleeding.--
Falling down, it always hurts
No matter how you spin it
it can always get worse.
But you can't hold back
'cause you've gotta hold on.
It's hard, now you know
but somewhere down the road
the easy way drew you in
so inviting, now it's starting to wear you down.
--There's nothing wrong with you
except the voice you've given others.
Must be nice under the covers
where it's warm.
It's not enough to say
that no one's gonna hurt you
'cause the battle's so much better
when you're bleeding.--

Small Voice

Breaking glass sounds the same
when no one knows what you're saying
but I see your aim and I know
where the bottle's landing.
She's using her small voice
to tell me that she can't hide
but across 300 miles
I can do nothing.
--I can't say how many times I've tried
to stay between the lines
but they never stopped you.
Digging deep, I'm afraid I'll find
your darkness in me but I'll never stop trying
to make you pay for something.--
Let's start with a small death,
the kind where no one suspects
but I know where you're putting out
your cigarettes.
She's sworn me to silence
'cause it's always worse in the end.
We have to keep the monster
from striking again.
--I can't say how many times I've tried
to stay between the lines
but they never stopped you.
Digging deep, I'm afraid I'll find
your darkness in me but I'll never stop trying
to make you pay for something.--
For something
for something
--I can't say how many times I've tried
to stay between the lines
but they never stopped you.
Digging deep, I'm afraid I'll find
your darkness in me but I'll never stop trying
to make you pay for something.--
