Fold up my thoughts, tuck them away.
Drink for the pain, drink it away.
Turn the key that hides
The devil's tongue, the vicious side.
The surgeons cut is fine.
These wounds may heal in time.
But still the edges fray.
And when she's gone, I’ll know she's safe.
The walls are caving in.
To crush the state I'm in.
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame.
Disappear from sight, to make all things right .
We filled all our days the same.
We shared a sacred thrust, I cast it into flames.
Revealed a fragile hide.
My selfish ways killed her inside.
So turn my picture down.
In days I'll leave this town.
And when I do, you'll stay.
Cause when I'm gone, I know I'm safe.
The walls are caving in.
To crush the state I’m in.
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame.
Disappear from sight, to make all things right .
