You say we need to talk.      He walks, you say sit down it’s just a talk
Know that you know best.      ‘Cause after all you do know best.
Begins to raise his voice,    you lower yours, grant him one last choice

He smiles politely back at you.      You smile politely right on through
Try to slip past his defence,        without granting innocence
Drive until you lose the road        or break with the ones you’ve followed

Some sort of window to your right.   As he goes left and you stay right
Lay down a list of what is wrong.    The things you’ve told him all along
He will do one of two things         He will admit to everything

Between the lines of fear and blame,    you begin to wonder why you came
Pray to God he hears you                And pray to God he hears you
Or he’ll say he’s not the same          and you’ll begin to wonder why you came
