I'm a cheat and I'm liar
I'm a spark without a fire
And I would drop you if I ever cared
To pick you up
I'm a joke and I'm a riot
I'm louder when I'm quiet
And I would break your heart
Just to watch you fix it up
Excuses never fit my lopsided actions
Hem up the seams and the holes, we'll patch 'em
Phrases that keep you at bay will always break through
'Cause that's what I do
'Cause that's what I do
I'm lost and I'm alone
You think we're close but you don't know
That somehow by the end of this
I'll make you cry
I'm a thief and I'm a crook
I'm a chapter with no book
And I would leave without a word
So I don't have to say 'goodbye'
Excuses never fit my lopsided actions
Hem up the seams and the holes, we'll patch 'em
Phrases that keep you at bay will always break through
'Cause that's what I do
'Cause that's what I do
I'm the calm before the storm
Consider yourself warned
You should walk away before you're forced
To turn and run
I'm the one that you should blame
And I'm not at all ashamed
To be the one left standing with
The smoking gun
Excuses never fit my lopsided actions
Hem up the seams and the holes, we'll patch 'em
Phrases that keep you at bay will always break through
'Cause that's what I do
'Cause that's what I do
