[Verse 1]
Are you having trouble finding sleep at night,
Or does your lack of conscious tell you everything's alright?
I trust your good intentions that your watching over friends,
You must think that I'm crazy if I don't see through that grin.
[Chorus]
So tell me what your best friend knows,
That I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down,
Wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out
Everywhere you go, I just wanna know
What your best friend knows (what your best friend knows)
[Verse 2]
So vindictive, you'll say anything you like.
The smile you fake, the steps you take
You know you never could get it right!
And talk is cheap, so make believe your secrets find the grave,
It's too late, you gave up,
Your last chance to walk away.
[Chorus]
So tell me what your best friend knows,
That I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down,
Wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out
Everywhere you go, I just wanna know
What your best friend knows
[Hook]
Stand a little to tall,
Say a little too much,
Gonna bite that know-it-all tongue.
You tried a little too hard,
Now I'm calling that bluff,
Big plans are coming undone.
That's just typical, you're so cynical,
Couldn't have me, I didn't want you,
You're selling me out,
To the girl I can't afford to lose.
Stand a little to tall,
Say a little too much,
Gonna bite that know-it-all tongue.
You tried a little too hard,
Now I'm calling that bluff,
Big plans are coming undone.
That's just typical, you're so cynical,
Couldn't have me, I didn't want you,
You're selling me out,
To the girl I can't afford to lose.
[Bridge]
So tell me what your best friend knows,
That I don't know.
Tell me why you talk me down,
Wherever you go.
You're a saint, you're a queen,
And I'm just another boy without a crown.
Tell me why you sell me out
Everywhere you go, I just wanna know
What your best friend knows
[Outro]
What your best friend knows,
I'm never gonna let this go!
What your best friend knows?
