[Intro: Spoken]

Look, we both already know

Might as well just come clean now

Save us the heartache


[Chorus]

Please do something on your own

She needs to say before I know, before I know

So won't you make a move, baby?

These beams I see on your face

When you speak to me, oh honey, I know

(Something just ain't right)

Before I know

Now tell me on your own, baby


[Verse]

The world ain't just full of liars

At least I like to believe that we're all decent, all decent

Oh baby

I wanna believe that you're not breathing fire

But the truth of the matter is so easy to see

You can't deceive me, so just tell me

Where were you Friday when I was on stage?

"Doing nothing?"

Kinda hard not to think you were holding him

Or maybe I'm just a road in the pieces

At least then you wouldn't have to face me with decency

'Cause you're so decent

Just tell me


[Chorus]

Please do something on your own

She needs to say before I know, before I know

So won't you make a move, baby?

These beams I see on your face

When you speak to me, oh honey, I know

(Something just ain't right)

Before I know

Now tell me on your own, baby


[Verse]

Do I have to find out the hard way now?

Where ever the truth lies, I'll break the walls down

Even though it might hurt me, I hate secrecy

Oh baby

I like to believe that you're not on the way down

But the truth of the matter is you're taking a piece of me

Oh, with you, so just tell me

How come you don't realise what you're doing here?

It's all about fair

I wanna hear you talk honestly

Or maybe I'm just a road in the pieces

At least then you wouldn't have to face me with decency

'Cause you're so decent


[Chorus]

Please do something on your own

She needs to say before I know, before I know

So won't you make a move, baby?

These things I see on your face

When you speak to me, oh honey, I know

(Something just ain't right)

Before I know

Now tell me on your own, baby
