Fold up my thoughts, tuck them away
Drink for the pain, drink it away
Turn the key that hides
The devil's tongue, the vicious side
The surgeons cut is fine
These wounds may heal in time
But still the edges fray
And when she's gone, I'll know she's safe
The walls are caving in
To crush the state I'm in
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame
Disappear from sight, to make all things right
We filled all our days the same
We shared a sacred thrust, I cast it into flames
Revealed a fragile hide
My selfish ways k**ed her inside
So turn my picture down
In days I'll leave this town
And when I do, you'll stay
Cause when I'm gone, I know I'm safe
The walls are caving in
To crush the state I'm in
So sew the noose with my lies and my shame
Disappear from sight, to make all things right
