[Verse 1] They said something bad happened And you’re probably thinkin’ that you’re guilty now Oh yeah But even when you admit it to yourself It’s easy to hide it somehow You keep running circles in your mind Pretending it’s fine But the truth don’t fade with time [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to burn inside You don’t have to wonder why Everyone slips sometimes It’s just part of being alive [Chorus] It’s crazy how you can lie How you can try How you can cry just to save face Oh But I would rather just own up to what I’ve done Even if it’s not fun You get nothing at all If you play it safe Nothing at all If you play it safe [Verse 2] You keep every little moment Locked away like it never even mattered much But the memories get louder Every time you try to stay untouched You tell yourself stories late at night To make wrong feel right But it only works for a while [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to run and hide You don’t have to tuck it inside Everyone breaks sometimes It’s the only way we learn to try [Chorus] It’s crazy how you can lie How you can try How you can cry just to save face Oh But I would rather just own up to what I’ve done Even if it’s not fun You get nothing at all If you play it safe Nothing at all If you play it safe [Bridge] And maybe someday you’ll see There’s a strength in honesty You don’t have to carry the weight You don’t have to bend till you break You just have to say your name And let the truth remain [Chorus – Final] It’s crazy how we can lie How we can try How we can cry just to feel safe But I’m done with the shadows Done running away I’m facing the day You get nothing at all If you play it safe Nothing at all If you play it safe
