I see your lips are the staircase to your soul
Now you're fighting your feelings
And fearing the shame that you sown
All the times that I blindly followed you
Can't believe that I never saw the truth
I don't know what to do

You locked your arms around my mouth
I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue
I scream and shout, tear my lungs out
I don't know what to do, I can't get over you

They tell you what you want to hear
To feed the attention you hold so dear
Tread lightly across these lines
Playing again and again in my mind

There's a painful progress building you up stone by stone
There's a certain satisfaction I watching you fall from your throne
So pardon me, avoid the possibility
Of unraveling the patchwork in the way that you think

Why can't I see the truth?
I don't know what to do

You locked your arms around my mouth
I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue
I scream and shout, tear my lungs out
I don't know what to do, I can't get over you

I'll sleep peacefully
Knowing I pierced your skin
Despite all your walls
I still found my way in

I'm not another fall out, boy did we try
I may be a notch in your bedpost
But your life is a lie

Why can't I see the truth?
I don't know what to do

You locked your arms around my mouth
I don't know what to do, I think I'm turning blue
I scream and shout, tear my lungs out
I don't know what to do, I can't get over you

Oh no, I don't know what to do
And I, I can't get over you

I'll tell you what you need to hear
So close your lips and listen, dear
I think it's time that I said goodbye
Play it again and again in your mind
