its true, you really can't face how crude you are
cover your face til all wounds turn to scar
where loyalty resides
you simply run and hide

wheres your leg to stand on?
you've got an awful daring tongue
wheres your leg to stand on?
to ever defend just what you've done
you take and take until you break them like its fun
oh, wheres your leg to stand on?
I see what you've become

and it kills me because I gave everything
to keep you close to me
but you're .blinded. by your self denial
and I think its going to take quite awhile
til you can face yourself
you're the only one to doubt what you did was wrong

so lie to yourself, darling
and blame it on me if you need
but you can't deny this death
was the result of your own greed

so wheres your leg to stand on?
