Been a puzzle from the start
Cuz I never let you know
Got the pieces all layed out
But I don't know where they go
And I could tell you what I'd like
But I know you wouldn't hear
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
There's a sadness in your eyes
That I've never seen before
Maybe we'd be better off
As just pieces on the floor
'Know I watched it all burn down
But there wasn't much to save
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
Oh and I know it's so much easier to let it slide
But I don't care if I have to be the one you blame
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
All these dreams have twisted up with time
Cuz I never let you know
Got the pieces all layed out
But I don't know where they go
And I could tell you what I'd like
But I know you wouldn't hear
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
There's a sadness in your eyes
That I've never seen before
Maybe we'd be better off
As just pieces on the floor
'Know I watched it all burn down
But there wasn't much to save
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
Oh and I know it's so much easier to let it slide
But I don't care if I have to be the one you blame
You'd say it's a cover up
And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight
And we lay with a thousand miles between us
And all the sheets have twisted up with time
And I don't want to lie
All these dreams have twisted up with time
