lyrics

Don't lie, you're hiding a secret. Nice try. Do you think you can keep it under your hat? You know you can't relax. You gotta cover your tracks. You fucked up; a night you're not proud of. A hookup that you can't speak aloud of. That one uncommon lapse has got you walking on glass and trying to paper the cracks. You're slipping backwards. The stress fractures spread like red lights across her radar. You dot your 'i's, and you cross your fingers. Rationalize, but the guilt still lingers. Just want to bury the axe, turn your back on the past and try to paper the cracks. Delete those emails. Deceit is in the details. You missed this lipstick on your collar. Yeah it shows, and she knows. Uncertain whether a moment of pleasure could ever sever what kept you together. You're wishing you could go back, rewrite those first couple acts and keep that thing in your slacks. Now she's leaving, and you're spinning in gravel. The web you're weaving has begun to unravel. You watch the cards collapse and start to face the facts, you'll never paper the cracks.
