lyrics

I fell into a conversation I didn’t plan to have,
Went from talking about the weather outside
To the pain buried deep inside.
It didn’t take too long before the tears began to fall,
There I said it, there you said it,
We’re broken and we can’t hide.

Maybe I’m losing my mind,
Maybe I was bored, trying to pass the time.
They tell me to put the past behind,
Put the future on hold
‘Cause now is the only time
That really matters.
After all this time,
We’re finally honest/real,
After all this time,
We finally realize the truth,
After all.

This wasn’t the talk that I’d been planning out for years,
I’d written out a script for us to use,
And I memorized the cues.
It didn’t take too long before I completely lost control,
I lost the script, forgot the cues,
I’m broken, I had to lose.

Is honesty the antidote to everything that ails?
Then why’s it have to hurt so much,
Despite the good intent?
I hope it won't take long before the wounds begin to heal,
Is surgery a life-saver?
They say that the truth sets free.
