Been a puzzle from the start Cuz I never let you know Got the pieces all layed out But I don't know where they go And I could tell you what I'd like But I know you wouldn't hear You'd say it's a cover up And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight And we lay with a thousand miles between us And all the sheets have twisted up with time And I don't want to lie There's a sadness in your eyes That I've never seen before Maybe we'd be better off As just pieces on the floor 'Know I watched it all burn down But there wasn't much to save
You'd say it's a cover up And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight And we lay with a thousand miles between us And all the sheets have twisted up with time And I don't want to lie Oh and I know it's so much easier to let it slide But I don't care if I have to be the one you blame You'd say it's a cover up And you'd tell me just to sleep it off tonight And we lay with a thousand miles between us And all the sheets have twisted up with time And I don't want to lie All these dreams have twisted up with time
