I wasn't exactly alone when she left me
Figured I wasn't unhappy to live with my own world
I tend to make my mountains out of molehills
I've always made my goddesses out of you girls
And I've always had the chance to say
That I never got to scream when I drowned in your sea
You know I've always been lonely so I guess I just got used to it
But I guess I got used to dragging you down with me
So my sandcastle has been waiting for the waves
I carry lost love like some tragic disease
And I wonder why she never came back to put out the flames
But when I called her this was what she said to me
It makes more sense to stay underwater
It's not that hard to sing about being hurt
It's kind of lucrative to write a love song
Because everybody else just can't get enough
It's always easier to be victimised
Always blame the one who got you burnt
It's kind of funny how things turned out for ya
Because everybody knows
The truth's just not enough for the show
Because everybody knows
The truth's just not enough for the show
Well I'm aware I'm gonna die someday
So I might as well go down crashin' and burnin'
Oh my Lord, can you help me out here
Oh my Lord, why didn't you just pick up the phone
Oh my Lord, why did you forsake me
You know I carried my cross, I was bound in sin's chains
Oh my Lord, you just not listenin'
But when I was on my knees this was what He said to me
It makes more sense to stay underwater
It's not that hard to sing about being hurt
It's kind of lucrative to write a love song
Because everybody else just can't get enough
It's always easier to be victimised
Always blame the one who got you burnt
It's kind of funny how things turned out for ya
Because everybody knows
The truth's just not enough for the show
Because everybody knows
The truth's just not enough for the show
