lyrics

Sinking in like quicksand
Reflections of a broken man
Staring at an empty glass
Waiting for the time to pass
Now take your throne

Sympathies are taking over me
And I’m the first against the wall
Now I see your hidden truth
Behind the lies
Behind your youth

[Chorus]
I swear I knew his name
He swore he’d never be alone
To his everlasting shame
Another nightmare sleepless nights

Desperate for something to make sense
But a banshee no she doesn’t lie
The person that she saw before
Just a dream and nothing more
Now who are we today?

[Chorus]

Bridge:
First off I never wanted you to know
First love was the love I loved before
You and your curves I never wanted you to go
But I love to watch you walk away
Songs about a strutting cliche

[Chorus]
