Everybody knows the story   They've got the details, what the score is   But if you want the truth, girl   You may need more than a day      You need to move just a little closer   These walls have ears if you didn't know, girl   There're certain things that you need to know   Before you go on your way      It seems the world is a little busy   Selling lies on for a living   That in a blinking of an eye   The truth has slipped away      And the writings on the wall   To see      It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind   It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind      Moving on to the next installment   (In)   Case the bar room jury dies of boredom   The vultures are waiting   For the next meal of the day      Another tale that's sad and sorry   And another love that went so wrong   And all the inside guts and glory   That pushed it all along      It's hard to find the word to say   You just let the days go by, come what may   All the things that we should have done   Just happened anyway      And the writing written on the wall   For everyone to see      It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind   It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind      It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind   It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone   The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind
