[Verse]

A long time coming

Just spit it out

I promise it'll be worse

If you muffle the doubt

Find it yourself

Through the stories spun

Your voice so clearly

Says what needs to be done

Leave it all to chance

Take the leap of faith

And whatever happens

We'll both be okay

[Chorus]

But all of this has come exclusively at my expense

Through all of this I left a thousand words unsaid

Through all of this I left a thousand words unsaid

[Verse]

Pull the string a little tighter

Have to say it's not your best look

I gave and gave

While you only took

Put your feelings first

In this you've shown

So when the fall comes

At least you won't be alone

[Verse]

But all of this has come exclusively at my expense

Through all of this I left a thousand words unsaid

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

But all of this has come exclusively at my expense

Through all of this I left a thousand words unsaid

But all of this has come exclusively at my expense

Through all of this I left a thousand words unsaid

[Outro]

You never owed me anything, but I'll never understand

How exactly this unfolded, no I never had a chance

Does your conscience beg the question, you won't or you can't?
