Lyrics
Verse 1
Life was just fine, 'til you brought back time - I knew that I would face this day.
We all know with time, come scars and memories...Thought I would be over this.
Chorus
You called up, tried to make right - was it just to make yourself feel better?
What was it that you... wanted to say? Don't you know your words don't come out the right way?
Verse2
Don't hide behind... that fake smile - why can't you just be weak for once?
You say you're the victim, all the years, but I'm sure you had her whisper in your ear -
Any way... by the way...
What was it that you wanted? Empathy for apathy?
Chorus
You called up, tried to make right - was it just to make yourself feel better?
What was it that you wanted to say? Don't you know your words don't come out the right way?
