They've got the details, what the score is
But if you want the truth, girl
You may need more than a day
You need to move just a little closer
These walls have ears if you didn't know, girl
There're certain things that you need to know
Before you go on your way
It seems the world is a little busy
Selling lies on for a living
That in a blinking of an eye
The truth has slipped away
And the writings on the wall
To see
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind
Moving on to the next installment
(In)
Case the bar room jury dies of boredom
The vultures are waiting
For the next meal of the day
Another tale that's sad and sorry
And another love that went so wrong
And all the inside guts and glory
That pushed it all along
It's hard to find the word to say
You just let the days go by, come what may
All the things that we should have done
Just happened anyway
And the writing written on the wall
For everyone to see
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind
It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone
The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind
Everybody knows the story They've got the details, what the score is But if you want the truth, girl You may need more than a day You need to move just a little closer These walls have ears if you didn't know, girl There're certain things that you need to know Before you go on your way It seems the world is a little busy Selling lies on for a living That in a blinking of an eye The truth has slipped away And the writings on the wall To see It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind Moving on to the next installment (In) Case the bar room jury dies of boredom The vultures are waiting For the next meal of the day Another tale that's sad and sorry And another love that went so wrong And all the inside guts and glory That pushed it all along It's hard to find the word to say You just let the days go by, come what may All the things that we should have done Just happened anyway And the writing written on the wall For everyone to see It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never easy, never kind It lives on even though you think it's dead and gone The legacy love leaves behinds was never one to mind Explain Request ×
