These things I say
Come spinning out of my mouth
Like they've lost their way
And there's no doubt about it
You heard me,
I shouted,
I think you'd prefered it
That whenever you come clean
I say nothing at all
So what?
You'd left
Before I had a single chance to second-guess
These bittersweet diversions
And late night excursions
Secret perversions
Well, maybe I'm naïve,
'Cause I can't believe this
And now you fill my heart with doubt
You've turned me inside out
But I'm not jaded
And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded
My life
Complete
With minor twists and turns
And just a small defeat
You know you really got me
You burned me
You shocked me
You threw me
You lost me
Well, maybe I'm naïve
But I'm catching on fast
And how could I have been so proud?
You've turned me inside out
But I'm not jaded
And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded
You came around
Your hands did all the talking
As you sat me down
For a bittersweet reminder
You heard me
I shouted
I'd never allow it
'Cause maybe I'm naïve
But I'm not fucking stupid
And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded
