this hits too close to home for me   and I don't need to be reminded of this pain   in dwelled so long on the possible changes   every step forward was a fall towards your demise      (the secret lives of wives)   and you beg me   please don't go tonight   and I beg you   please just come back down      to earth to build this trust   in which we have learned   to recreate      (the secret lives of wives)   and you beg me   please don't go tonight   and I beg you   please just come back down      your pride won't let you ride   and you said   when will you give it up   I won't fail   I'm not leaving   you and me   and this will fall   how will we get it back up      (and I thought this candid smile was worn down)   (lying to suite the mood shop for ties to hang myself with)      and you say this ended in arrogance   caused by my vanity   oh where will you be      well maybe you just looked too hard   or maybe I don't look enough   who will decide our fate      how will you align this with love   how will you end this with glory   oh and don't let this go   and don't let me go   just let this down      (stricken close to the heat)   (and I'm biting a line burn in wheat fields)   (shop for ties to hang myself with)
