You know they know you lied
missteps all amplified
Don’t walk away from the scene of this crime
You are in way too deep and out of time

When you feel done wrong by all
Trust the guy in the long-haul
‘Cause away sounds like paradise
And anywhere else will suffice

But you’re just running away from you
And all of those sins you did accrue
You are driving yourself insane
Stop pulling at your self-made chain

With the key like a baton in your hand
You’re the leader of this one-man band
You’ve consumed with manic damage control
All while free on self-imposed parole

The punishment is far far less
Then these fears that you let coalesce
Now it is just you versus you
And all the things you knew were true
