She said I think I'm overwhelmed but we're just friends Keith said well I don't need another friend Caved in and counted out and he doesn't understand Why are the ones that hurt the ones that hold my hand? While they pretend to scratch your back They hold the knife aside And when they feel they've gained your trust They drive it in your spine What is it that makes them sure Their confidence be so secure Does everyone put prices on their pride? No Keith Ledsome this is your life He thinks could first impressions really be my enemy? And is appearance so important? Caved in and counted out and he doesn't understand Why are the ones that hurt the ones that hold my hand? While they pretend to scratch your back They hold the knife aside
And when they feel they've gained your trust They drive it in your spine What is it that makes them sure Their confidence be so secure Does everyone put prices on their pride? No Keith Ledsome this is your life Does anyone know nights alone just waiting for that call? I shun your sappy unity until the final fall Throw back a few more drinks and bleed my knuckles raw Keith says I know that you feel sorry for me It's my life's story While they pretend to scratch your back They hold the knife aside And when they feel they've gained your trust They drive it in your spine What is it that makes them sure Their confidence be so secure Does everyone put prices on their pride? No Keith Ledsome this is your life
