The Prank

I stand alone drenched by pouring rain

Or maybe I am soaked from all my tears

With the bloody broken pieces of my heart in my hand

My jaw drops in disbelief at what I hear

I run out of breath

As I feel my skin turn red

Inside I'm in knots

And I'd never have thought they could hurt me like they did

And I will let you know right now

They're slowly tearing down

Everything that we had built

For years now to the ground

With every word behind my back

It's harder to forget all of this regret

And I'm probably a fool to think this would change anything

And I'm probably a fool to think this song could change anything

Denial creeps in

And I find myself making excuses for them

Cause I don't know what else to do

It seems easier than dealing with the truth

With a kiss on the cheek

And a knife in my back

Cutting deeper than I've ever been cut before

My trust has been tied in a brown paper bag

Like a prank that's been left on the step by the door

With a kiss on the cheek

And a knife in my back

Cutting deeper than I've ever been cut before

And my trust is returned in a brown paper bag

Like a prank that's been left on the step by the door

And I will let you know right now

They're slowly tearing down

Everything that we had built

For years now to the ground

With every word behind my back

It's harder to forget all of this regret

And I'm probably a fool to think I could change

And I'm probably a foot to think this song could change anything
