If an apology from you meant anything
I'd accept it now with grace
Well you and I both know its just a prop to save some face
If you had any self respect you'd turn yourself in for your crime
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
Everytime you go to sleep at night
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
It just becomes a bigger lie
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
In between days full of hypertension
Basking in the memories you hold so dear
Remember the guy with the violent home
Once a kid making manures and the grand ideas
I'm glad to see the world through a different window
And oh it doesn't colour every move I make
I'm glad its no fiction, no rose compense
Just a choose for the look at the love I gave to ya
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
Everytime you go to sleep at night
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
It just becomes a bigger lie
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
Everything you say is pray for natures sinners
Deserving every pill that was so hard upon
Fold into the chest in the mother's crutch
Relish in the lure of a distant sun
Now I'm glad to see the world through the winter planet
Colour wheels stall between the green and blue
No white, no snow melt, no ice bound lakes
Just birds song strung across the cobalt blue
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
Everytime you kiss your kids goodnight
Everytime you tell yourself its alright
It just becomes a bigger lie
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
I hope that you can stand yourself tonight
