I?e played off devastation
I told you it didn`t mean that much
but this world keeps on closing in on me
whenever we fall out of touch
it`s those subtle differences
keeping up appearances for what?
it gets the best of me
sometimes it`s better not to know
I?e tried so many times
to tell you how I feel
but forever`s such a long, long time
and this apology`s for real
now there`s a time and a place for saving face
there`s a time when it`s all too much
through the hardest times
through the thick and thin I?e always played it off
and kept my grin
but this life`s too short to waste on pride
this is the time and the place for me
to clean up my side
