Words

Every day a different woman sleeps by his side

And every day he tells each one he loves her like a bride

Every night he walks in the house where he's built a family

He tells his wife he loves her alone and they both fall asleep



Oh...



His words are like a refuge for each woman that he sees

But to him his words are like dust that blows away with the breeze

In his heart he knows he could be much more of a man

But he's fed himself the lies that make him doubt he can

And he says



Now I am swimming across an ocean

Dragging a ship by my feet

Cause words on their own become empty emotion



You never know what to believe



Oh...



Now I am swimming across an ocean

Dragging a ship by my feet

Cause words on their own become empty emotion

You never know what to believe



Don't tell me what I should believe



Oh...
