I knew I couldn't trust you back when we were kids

You sold me out, you ran and hid


From all your problems, can't even face your friends


Your best friends




You're holding something in tonight


And I can tell you're not all right

Your poker face concealing


All the cards that you're not dealing




Cross your arms, avert your eyes


You're like a child ashamed to cry


The words inside your head

When I find out, you'll wish you said





I let you down so many times

But I can't ever tell you this


There's no forgiving it


I promised you I'd always be there

But that couldn't be less true


It's the worst thing I could do




You're gonna bet it all on black


And when it's gone you'll want it back


'Cause truth don't mix with reason

And cheating's the ultimate treason





And I could see through you like glass

Slither around below the pass


Garden of Eden burning


It's a bitter fruit, you won't discern it




I let you down so many times


But I can't ever tell you this

There's no forgiving it


I promised you I'd always be there


But that couldn't be less true

It's the worst thing I could do




My loss, your gain


It didn't have to be this way

Across my face






Holding the pain, we're better off this way


We don't abstain, we're better off this way

Friends are in vain, we're better off this way

Better off this way




I knew I couldn't trust you back when we were kids

You sold me out, you ran and hid


From all your problems, can't even face your friend

Your best friend




I let you down so many times

But I can't ever tell you this

There's no forgiving it

I promised you I'd always be there


But that couldn't be less true

It's the worst thing I could do
