Well, you've been living a lie by your own admission My patience has been hard enough to fake And the secrets you save for your new physician Are leaving me with one ear on the safe And the holes in your story increase suspicion Your witnesses have all been on the take And we can give it a gamble under one condition You'll have to take your foot off the, foot off the brake So give up and give in and start over again But be honest, cause you're all I need It's pathetic Why can't we get it straight? Well, you've been compromised by your new position They're looking up your skirt, for heavens sake And your army of fakes that refuse to listen Will end up in designer, shallow graves It's true The torture and tears have become tradition But the something on the side is what takes the cake And the surplus of uppers and apparitions Are the only things that keep me up, keep me awake So give up and give in and start over again But be honest, cause you're all I need It's pathetic Why can't we get it straight? So stay up and stay in Yeah, I'll say it again Look beyond this There's a big picture that you're missing Framed by the first mistake By the bags under your eyes I can see that you've packed for the week So hang up this shit for the neighbors to see Writing won't save the world So you best stay pretty, girl So give up and give in and start over again But be honest, cause you're all I need It's pathetic Why can't we get it straight? So stay up and stay in Yeah, I'll say it again Look beyond this There's a big picture that you're missing Framed by the first mistake By the first mistake By the first mistake Framed by the first mistake
