I've been here all along
Cleaning up, holding on
That was me in the shadows

Brick by brick, piece by piece
But my home's just a lease
Praying you won't let go

I know my lips aren't her lips
My skin's not her skin
And I'm tired of pretending
When I'll never win
​
While you're thinking of her
I put my heart on the table
Heart on the table

Hoped you'd give me your love
But you're just not able
You're just not able
​
So it starts as it ends
Hold me close play pretend
Masters of illusions

Hungrier than before
Keep one foot out the door
All we have's confusion

And they will tell stories
Of happier times
When your lies were better
And I missed the signs
​
While you're thinking of her
I put my heart on the table
Heart on the table

Hoped you'd give me your love
But you're just not able
You're just not able
​
When I leave I won't look back
Bet you think you've got me trapped
But you don't, you don't

Oh I've done it all before
Got my suitcase at the door
Here I go, here I go
​
While you're thinking of her
I put my heart on the table
Heart on the table

Hoped you'd give me your love
But you're just not able
You're just not able
