Lyrics

We used to have a picture perfect story
Just like the lovers on the screen
With a perfect back and perfect cover
We’d hide all the pages in between
Well, the second time, I should have known better
But I guess I didn’t want to see
The perfect lies of a perfect lover
So near to me

Chorus:
You have no right to seek forgiveness
Not with the way that things stand now
I had to fight, so forgive me
For dragging this out

Looking back, it makes me wonder
How could I have been so blind
Afraid to question my convictions
With all of the evidence left behind
Now I’ve swept away all of the ashes
No more fear of what I might find
Don’t try to fool me with your clever ways
I read between the lines
