Rites Of Passage

With this right of passage, cruel twist of fate

With every turn of every card I never see

Until it's too late, the deed is done and leaves me

Wondering just where our love has gone

I cannot say in honest truth

That I still trust all my feelings for you

You knew that it was wrong

And you think that saying sorry

Is gonna make it seem alright

And maybe in this song

You will hear me for the first time

And you'll start to see the light

Living with you is like being parked

On double yellow lines waiting to be towed away

I'll pay the fine and I'll be back

But I'm running out of reasons to stay

You knew that it was wrong

And you think that saying sorry

Is gonna make it seem alright

And maybe in this song

You will hear me for the first time

And you'll start to see the light

You knew that it was wrong

And you think that saying sorry

Is gonna make it seem alright

And maybe in this song

You will hear me for the first time

And you'll start to see the light

With this right of passage

I reclaim my heart

I take my leave as if on cue

I play no further part

In your self-penned dramas

Where each stolen kiss

Just goes to prove

That happy endings don't exist
