It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room ah
Is a lie, still a lie if the words a never spoken
Can a heart be truly broken without an act of violence
Loopholes find a breach
Add it up a figure of speech
You skirt around and tell me lies that sound a lot like silence
But you never really had the nerve did you think I needed it to be
Better than it really was
Did you think did you think oh that I
Couldn't really handle it did you think I needed it to be
Better than it really was by lying about the truth
So you turn your back like you can't even see it see it
Tell me that I'm making it up ohh
Oh oh oh you better tell me the truth
It's in the room now it's in the room, room, room, room
Room now it's in the room now it's in the room
Now it's in the room room room
Ah tongue tied so you justify your lack of words by feeling
Hurt spin the bottle
Back on me
You push the throttle
Crank the heat
With room to pride and righteous anger
When did you become a stranger
Welcome home my lying lover
You and I are not alone
But you never really had the nerve did you think I needed it to be
Better than it really was did you think did you think oh that I
Couldn't really handle it did you think I needed it to be
Better than it really was by lying about the truth
So you turn your back
Like you can't even see it see it
Tell me that I'm making it up ohh
Oh oh oh you better tell me the truth
It's in the room now it's in the room, room, room, room
Room now it's in the room now
It's in the room now it's in the room, room, room
So you turn your back like you can't even see it see it
Tell me that I'm making it up oh
As you try to brush it under the rug
But I can see it clearly there's an elephant in the room
Better tell me the truth the truth the truth, truth, truth
You better tell me the truth
It's in the room now it's in the room, room, room, room
Room now it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room
Room now it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room
Room now it's in the room now
It's in the room now it's in the room, room, room
