There's something you should know

That I could never tell

You think that I am better

I thought of telling you at home or on the phone

Or written in a letter.

When the world is asleep

I am still trying to figure it out

And the secrets I'm keeping

Are what I am always about

I know I got off easy

God knows why you believe me

Hiding behind little white lies

This time I got off easy

When will you ever see?

That I got, and I got, and I got off, and I got off easy.

There's something you would know

If you could read my mind

Or look behind my cover

Creeping around at night

Is it impossible to be an honest lover?

So I'll live and I'll die

Never be satisfied 'till tommorow

Can I change this? Arrange this to keep me from feeling so hollow?

I know I got off easy.

God knows why you believe me.

Hiding behind little white lies.

This time I got off easy.

When will you ever see

That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy

And I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy.

I know I got off easy

When will you ever see

That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy.

That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy.
