lyrics

VERSE 1

Flashbacks to cold lips and contraband
A classic case of 'just one time' getting out of hand
Did I take the bait blindly like an infant child?
Did I shy from the truth, if only for a while?

A cruel cover-up, soak it up, sit back and smile
I started a race, could only run a mile
Full throttle I threw myself into a phase
Of hot-blooded bliss, from that I can't escape

CHORUS
I can't even think straight now
And it's only the start of the state I'm in
Cos I'm so over my head in doubt
That I can't even tell where truth ends and my lies begin
(...and my lies begin)

VERSE 2
First shot at a calling that I ever had
Not an honest day, for that I don't feel bad
Flashbacks to the first time that we made the call
Overcome with regret? Only when I was caught

Now look at the space we gotta occupy
Can't save on the penalty, although we try
Full throttle I threw myself into a phase
Knowing all too well that I would not escape

CHORUS
I can't even think straight now
And it's only the start of the state I'm in
Cos I'm so over my head in doubt
That I can't even tell where truth ends and my lies begin

MIDDLE 8
Keep it in mind, that this is the second time
That our paths have crossed and I start to unwind

CHORUS x 2
