we'll keep on talking this out
but I've already made up your mind
I've been trying to gnaw through my tongue
to stop from confessing my crimes
and these conversations are wearing me down

what did my patience prove
if it's just another bed of nails
always the silent treatment always the easy way out alive

if there's no further questions I'll be on my way back home.

and it's just another sharp pain and it doesn't hurt like it used to when I was a desperate man when I still believed in the meaning of the word

you tried to warn me you and your consequences
if I am outnumbered if I am defenseless
if I come here unarmed in the middle of the night on my own
standing on the front lines I will die

if you invite me down
if it'll please the crowd
I only go through this for your amusement
it doesn't hurt like should when you're throwing your stones around
I'm alone trying to sleep it off
but it's hard not to shake at the sound of it breaking
when you're living in a house of mirrors reflecting all of my failure
I will concede to my replacement congratulations

it's over and over again
I was in for the long run when you cut me down
another sharp pain a servant to our thrones

always the one that got away always apologizing always the silent treatment always the stubborn child I kept my mouth shut tight always the one that got away always the bed of nails I only have myself to blame
