Zachary (Maybe)

First, I'd like to admit that I'm not perfect Truth be told, this ship is in distress Abandoned in the storm, I don't deserve this But you never learn so what did you expect? You thought she'd change You thought this all'd be rearranged On the corner block of 5th and Madison I became convinced I had found meaning A love so beautiful yet so deceiving The story of a work of art That broke my heart Ripped me apart Tell me again, tell me again How do you justify what you did? Say it again, say it again! If it helps clear your conscience Tell me again, tell me again How do you justify what you said? Say it again say it again! Eventually you'll have to be honest And you'll know By the sinking feeling in your stomach The stubborn thoughts creeping through the back of your head "What have I thrown away"? I really liked our new apartment Well, I guess it's your new apartment now Hope it keeps you and your new boy happy When he is gone in the morning And you wonder how You can't keep anyone around Cups poured for both of us this evening The first to runneth over wins After one or two or three, yeah And I'm texting you again at 3am You won't reply I'll die a little more inside. Tell me again, tell me again How do you justify what you did? Say it again say it again! If it helps clear your conscience Tell me again, tell me again How do you justify what you said? Say it again say it again! Eventually you'll have to be honest And you'll know By the bitter taste in your mouth The stale smoke in your lungs that you can't quite cough out "What have I thrown away?"
