You Left Something Out Lyrics

When we were kids

You'd play the cop,

I'd play the criminal,

But you left something out.



And now I see the change in you

is more than chemical,

And you left something out.



Now you appear at functions

How you play the gentleman,

But you left something out.



Your easy smile, your little wave

Might fool those simpletons,

But you left something out.



And what did you think I would do-

Wash away the rain like the papers do?



You thought that you knew me;

You thought you saw through me.

I guess I left something out, too.



And as your power grew

You tried to lock you closet tight,

But you left something out.



'Cause you should know

You can't hide the darkness from the night.

And you left something out.



And what did you think I would do-

Keep my mouth shut like you told me to?



You thought that you knew me;

You thought you saw through me.

I guess I left something out, too.



I generally prefer a farce to melodrama

Only you left something out.

'Cause I have sworn an oath that I intend to honor.

Yes, and you left something out.



And what would you like me to say?

Well you'll find the words before you're passed away.



Well, you thought that you knew me;

You thought you could screw me.

I guess I left something out, too.
