lyrics

You waited till half past
But I never showed
It won't be the last
Promise that I know I won't keep
Half an inch deep
We all have a line to toe

We play the cards we’re dealt
When our sleeves are empty
We all know how you felt
But there’s no sympathy for you
Blank stares from those who knew
Nothing I could do
But you blame me

We all lie to ourselves
You can’t count on no one else
To care

Try to fake a smile
It gets real easy
To hold it for a while
When you start drinking by noon
Peaking way too soon
Sing a happy tune
As I'm sinking

We all lie to ourselves
You can’t count on no one else
To care

We all lie to ourselves
You can’t count on no one else
To care
