Words I heard from a friend*
These things you said
The nerve
Passed on from you to her then to me
I can't believe the nerve
It's what's changed you for me
And then it fell like rain
That covered your face again.
Now you'll never know that I knew
Let's both misunderstand
And circumvent a scene
It's just easier if we both swallow the key
Save yourself the long way out
There's no way around the nerve
Save your time for the long ride home
And I, I can't believe the nerve.
The nerve…
I heard from a friend
These lies you spread
The words
Moved on from you to her then to me
I can't believe the nerve.
It's what's saved me from you
And then it felt like blame
That covers your face again.
Now you'll never know that I knew
Let's both misunderstand
And circumvent a scene
It's just easier if we both swallow the key
Save yourself the long way out
There's no way around the nerve
Save your time for the long ride home
And I, I can't believe the nerve.
The nerve…
Let's fix this
She said “Who cares”
Let the facts speak anyway.
She said “Who cares”
Let the facts speak through this lie.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
Let's fix this.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
Save yourself the long way out
There's no way around the nerve
Save your time for the long ride home
And I, I can't believe the nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
The nerve.
