|
You see me as a judge |
|
though I deny it |
|
and hold me like a grudge |
|
then justify it |
|
But when you take such pains |
|
in searching for something that explains |
|
please take a good look at our remains |
|
[Chorus] |
|
'Cause if you were everything you say |
|
things would be different today |
|
and maybe there's room for compromise |
|
but signs that I get say otherwise |
|
say anything 'cause I've heard everything |
|
As hopeless as it seems |
|
I wouldn't worry |
|
You'll get your chance to tell |
|
your side of the story |
|
while you're raising your right hand, |
|
whatever defenses you had planned, |
|
remember that when you take the stand |
|
[Chorus] |
|
If you were everything you say |
|
things would be different today |
|
and though I'd be happy to believe |
|
I'd have to be much more naive |
|
say anything, (I've heard everything) |
|
yeah say anything, (I've heard everything) |
|
Now I've heard everything (now I've heard everything) |
|
Now I've heard everything (now I've heard everything) |
|
So why do I refuse |
|
the truth, when I clearly cannot use |
|
the comfort of one more lame excuse |
|
[Chorus] |
|
'cause if you were everything you say |
|
things would be different today |
|
and if you were everything you swear |
|
we wouldn't be beyond repair |
|
[Chorus] |
|
If you were everything you say |
|
things would be different today |
|
and if there has got to be an if |
|
get it over with |
|
say anything, 'cause I've heard everything |
|
now I've heard everything (now I've heard everything) |
|
now I've heard everything |
|
(repeat the above a couple dozen times) |
