The Damage
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can't hear you now
You've lost your touch
You're not the same person in front of me
So cover up your skin and bones
What are you trying so hard not to be
Everything that you wrote, I already read
You plagiarized
Everything that you said was all rehearsed
I know your lines
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
What's left to say
Time's running out
You've been discovered
It's your swan song
So clear the air
And come outside
Have you been faking sick for so long
And all of the pills you take won't fix a single thing
And you didn't think what goes around comes rolling back to me
Back to me
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
You've been faking sick for so long
I can't hear you now
You've lost your touch
Can't hear you now
You've lost your touch
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
The damage is done
I saw for myself
If I didn't know any better
I'd swear you were someone else
