The Incident

You don't need to know her secrets

Believe me..

They locked you up

So I forgot you

Forgot your name, so strange

I wonder if you got out

Teasing all my feelings out, you move away

It seems so natural to you

Recording all my problems onto memory cards

I'm taking control

And I save my soul

I want to be loved

And laughing under summer showers

Is still the way I see you now

Give me a sign I can breathe air

With the winter in my throat

Silence is another way

Of saying what I wanna say

And lying is another way

Of hoping it will go away

And you were always my mistake…

Sleeping with my ball and chain

When she cries I take the blame

Denial is a better way

Of getting through another day

Nothing is new here underneath the sun

One thought is stopping me from sleeping

I saw the future and it's breeding

I know what will be

You have no interest in the past

There's nothing here for you under the sun

There's nothing new to do, it's all been done

Never seem to get away from this

It's all falling into an abyss

You stole the only thing you love

So unfaithful, the drop is fatal

I didn't want to feel like a slave to your mood swings

And I'm not saying anything I wouldn't say behind your back

It's so hard to get along

I always know what you're gonna say

Now I gotta be the one to turn away, it's time to react

I walked away, now remember me lover

I've been through this with you about a hundred times

Agree to disagree, start again, with our lives

Then every single morning I wake up and you're still there

But tomorrow you will be alone and that is all you deserve
