ALL ALONG

(John Faye)

i shut my mouth
but you know where it's been
turn out the light
you know the fix is in again
ask me if i'm all right
right

i knew it all along
but i could not stop it
knew it all along
now you can't believe my eyes
i knew it all along
here's my life, don't drop it
you have to see the good in me
to go to sleep tonight

i shut you out
just like you said i would
how does it feel
to know me to well for your own good
you can't break your devil's deal
deal

day after day i follow the script
whatever i say i stole from your lips
so i do the time, convicted defendant
but partners in crime become co-dependent
so day after day i get more conflicted
counting the ways that i am addicted
to lies disguised as cries for help
so do us both a favor and save yourself

i knew it all along
but i could not stop it
knew it all along
now you can't believe my eyes
here's my life, don't drop it
you have to see the good in me
to go to sleep tonight (to make me realize)
i knew it all along
