i’d hate to be there when you drop the guard
outside you’re so soft, but the insides are so hard
set the bullet, speaking no-one
there’s a word they’d never hear
i’d hate to leave you, with your panic
but there must come a time for fear
don’t leave me here without anything
or anyone to call my own
you’ll burn yourself if you tried
to get past the surface of these lies
these alibis
you serve a witness
for a crime i’m soon to regret
set the bullet in the stone
i can think for my own
but nothing will come
