The Venetia Fair - Puking Platitudes lyrics

I was brought to my knees by our last conversation I was calling your bluff like you'd loaded that gun with a flag I could not stop puking platitudes 'Cause I couldn't give you up or keep yours down I wreaked of desperation how did you stand the smell? And I could feel the shame I buried under all my anger This was my last chance But God forbid I would show some understanding I'm just scared I'll be left alone I froze Let the mutiny fester Petrified like some statue walking a plank 'Cause I watched them chiseling They carved my body out of rock Then had the stones to ask I bend To hear their accusations I could not contest the fact that So I'll toss and turn and find a way to overstate the way I feel Because god forbid I would show some understanding i'm just scared That if you all leave That I'll be left alone
