So They Say

Could I stand in the back and watch them rip it apart
will they ask and ask till they can't take the embarrassment anymore
I'm talking in circles to amuse myself
They'll lie without an alibi and
they should have saved it for somebody else
[Chorus:]
Taken what was innocent now
I'm the one held in contempt
I put my life in idle hands
don't ever forget, I'll never forget
and I'll try not to make a sound
and stay until what's lost is found
I put my life in idle hands
don't ever forget, I'll never forget
Emotions takeover you'll discover you're not in control anymore
I grabbed for your hand but I meant to reach for the door
I'm talking in circles to amuse myself
They'll lie without an alibi,
they should have saved it for somebody else
[Chorus x2]
