It started with whispers
The sun in your eyes
As I snuck by
It settled in later
And that's when I knew
That I'm still afraid of you
A song in my head
A lie in my heart
Is just as good a place to start
As your black boots
And my blue jeans
It died down in whispers
If it ever died down
If it gave up ground
That you'll come back around
Just to see that I see
And you'll put the clouds all over me
When the lights are out
and the brightest parts
Of me are boarded up and dark
Well, it'll be the same,
it'll be the end
When all the boys you let
Inside your walls
Are missing when the curtain calls
Well, it'll be the same,
It'll be the end
