Lyrics

Things have been great till now---Since she's been freaking
out---And all my attempts to make her sane---Are all in
fucking vain---She pulls back every day---And why she'll
never say---And all that's left in our bed---Are just the
sweetest words she never said---
They say that talk is cheap it's getting easy to see---
*That your talk is too expensive for me for me for me
I see her mouth move and they're without proof---The words
she's squeeling out just leave me feeling doubt---His lips
once tasted hers and she's misplaced the words---And I'm
left wondering if she's beem under him
*You say I'm what you want you say you need me to go---
Your talk is too expensive I know I know I know
We all have our problems you must be trying to raise the
bar---You make me leave my tools at home they don't work
wherever they are---But if I'm your crutch limp along it's
hard enough to hold up myself---If you want something
different change it leave your knick-knack words on the shelf
And I'm still wondering if she's beem under him---And all
that's left in my bed---Are just the sweetest words she never
said---FUCK IT!---You'll never let me in it's getting easy to
see---If there's one who'll be killing you it's me it's me it's
me---I'm getting stuck in your throat I think it's time to go
Your talk is too expensive I know I know I know
