So many times he crossed the line, overboard, overdrawn, over looked, it's over now
She looks at herself, no one to turn to, then she wonders how it got this far
Led to pain and plight she renders false pretense, to make him fight harder
Lift him up to watch him crawl, so simple when we're young
Laughing as it all unfolds, self-righteous grudge is sold
Retrospect never shined so bright, different goals, different lives, never saw eye to eye
Inflated stories, rumor mills, run their course, back to the source, words in circles or lies
He tries to make her feel so used, plans her pain, all in vain, so he can close the door
Lift her up to watch her fall, her broken heart grows numb
Laughing as it all unfolds, Self-righteous grudge is sold
All that you breed will become your disease and will only hurt ourselves,
It's the love that you make, not the love that you take and that keeps us alive
And you give and you take and you learn from mistakes and we all will survive
And the sky may grow dark and the sun will then set but tomorrow is another start
People try to hold you down, success eats them alive, if you falter you will soon find, quick responses from behind
But if you prevail they'll turn inside out, act as if they never even had a doubt
Lift us up to watch us fall, naive that we've caught on. Jealous right from the start
We've only just begun
