so what’s the story now
what have you twisted, turned around
how many fingers point at me now
what’s the story

it appears to me, that i hold the dagger now
unfortunately, that only brings us down
it’s a different ball game, when you bring in lies
i don’t know how much longer i can look in your eyes
and tell you I still want to be friends

you may or may not understand
i had it all planned out, in my hands
but you’ve done things, to make me rethink
and you’ve changed everything

it appears to me, that i hold the dagger now
unfortunately, that only brings us down
it’s a different ball game, when you bring in lies
i don’t know how much longer i can look in your eyes
and tell you I still want to be friends

i had no idea that along with you, would come things like this
that behind your eyes, unintentionally there’d be things i can’t fix
cause and effect is what pushed them away
didn’t i tell you that would happen some day?
if you weren’t careful

once again it appears to me, that i hold the dagger now
unfortunately, that only brings us down
it’s a different ball game, when you bring in lies
i don’t know how much longer i can look in your eyes
and tell you I still want to be friends

people say that you’re not good and i should move on
but that’s a whole lot harder said than done
we’ve been friends for some time now, only to find out
that things don’t go anything like we think they will
friends that tell you to jump off the edge
are the ones who really push you instead

it appears to me, that i hold the dagger now
unfortunately, that only brings us down
it’s a different ball game, when you bring in lies
i don’t know how much longer i can look in your eyes
and tell you I still want to be friends
