Bill Mallonee - Rationale lyrics

Well there's an empty space it's the place at the table Where we would start each day If i could quit shaking long enough I could almost hear you say Oh my love oh my love Yeah i wanted to get for you just a small gift But all my pocket change was taken Then i wanted to become for you your favorite gift Then my heart got close to breaking Tear it all down tear it all down What's there left to say Tear it all down tear it all down Turn around and walk away Walk away It's a flimsy reason at best but a reason's a reason none the less And i need one to hold on to this wheel And if i hold my breath long enough Honey a kiss is what i want to steal Through the lies of facts that we marshall to attack Each other's wounded little hearts And then comes the hard sell you try to make to yourself But kid you know it's your own fault Yeah and for all that you learn you're still a sad piece of work And there's just no getting around The world's just victims and we're playing fast and loose But now you know the real truth
