Best Ex-Friend

Pretty words roll off of your tongue

Come out of your mouth heard by everyone

So convincing I believed it

For so long I still can't figure out

Why many wont last, why many wont last

With the blink of your eye it's all gone away

... please give me one more stay, I guess that's why I feel I'm loosing again...

Miles we've walked the moons we've seen

Leave it all behind and start a new beginning.

I won't keep you searching when there's nothing left to find

[Chorus:]

'cause I'm not ready for this life... ready for this life

But I'm ready for tonight, I'm still wondering why

... days convincing me once we'd never be strong, this is goodbye...

Tears fall down like the mourning rain

A taste of strain does

Something's getting compromised

Fall in or fallen the damage is done

And there's no convincing with these words you've spoken

(Repeat Chorus)

Pretty words roll off of your tongue

Come out of your mouth heard by everyone

So convincing I believed it for so long

Still I can't figure out when you were wrong

... everything you ever said would ever make this right or guilty

Now you say you wonder why you're my best ex-friend...

Pretty words roll off of your tongue

Come out of your mouth heard by everyone

So convincing I believed it for so long

Still I can't figure out why

... everything you ever said would ever make this right or guilty

Now you say you wonder why you're my best ex-friend...

(Repeat Chorus)

'cause I'm not ready for this life

But I'm ready for tonight, I'm still wondering why

... days convincing me once we'd never be strong, this is goodbye...

Days convince...
