[Verse 1]

Give up the ghosts

And that's time it reapproach

It was a fantasy, that you'd have me be

The tired clock is ticking

I'm sure you know what's missing

You cried for me

Hailing sympathy

I thought you and I were friends

But there was something to believe in

You go around saying I've changed

Have you remained the same

Know the date and the place

I'll return some other day

To confront what's left

[Chorus]

How can you say that (how can you say that)

You watch your own back (you watch your own back)

Will you ever gave it up?

How can you say that (how can you say that)

You watch your own back (you watch your own back)

You know you never gave it up

[Verse 2]

If you won't do it

No one else can do it

It's not like only you, I heard it

Depraved and base all so common plays

Come on tough guy, where's your muscle

Holding up to yourself?

[Chorus]

How can you say that (how can you say that)

You watch your own back (you watch your own back)

Will you ever gave it up?

How can you say that (how can you say that)

You watch your own back (you watch your own back)

You know you never gave it up
