| You know you’re talking to the wrong man, my friend
|
| I was on the fence
|
| Wasting time in future tense
|
| And all I came here for was finding love
|
| To help me understand my own
|
| It’s undefendable
|
| And now you wanna tell me you’re devoted
|
| All the while you told me you don’t know
|
| And now you wanna come and sell me what I already own
|
| And now you’re trying to teach me what I already know
|
| You know you’re talking to the wrong man, my friend
|
| When they bleed you out
|
| I won’t blame you now
|
| And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my own
|
| Right wrong way to go
|
| And all the greatest hands that I would hold in mine
|
| All the times I had to let them go
|
| And now they wanna come and sell you what you already own
|
| And now they’re trying to teach you what you already know
|
| You know you’re talking to the wrong man, my friend
|
| I’ll still make amends
|
| Gaining time in present tense
|
| And all I came here for was finding love to help me understand my home
|
| And redefine it all
|
| So the air I’ll breathe in to drown in the sea
|
| I’ve been beat up and did you know
|
| You said you’d know
|
| I get a little bit chewed up
|
| I wouldn’t if I had known
|
| And seeing some other you hopeful
|
| I know and I know you don’t see
|
| I’m being easy falling down the breeze
|
| I know you won’t count on me
|
| And the truth never bothers me
|
| I know and I know you don’t
|
| You’re celebrated for your time away
|
| I know you won’t be sleeping
|
| You know you’re talking to the wrong man, my friend
|
| When they bleed you out
|
| I won’t blame you now
|
| And all I came here for was finding love
|
| To help me understand my own
|
| Right wrong way to go |
