Got Off Easy

There's something you should know
That I could never tell
You think that I am better
I thought of telling you at home or on the phone
Or written in a letter

When the world is asleep
I'm still trying to figure it out
And the secrets I'm keeping
Are what I am always about

I know I got off easy
God knows why you believe me
Hiding behind little white lies
This time I got off easy
When will you ever see?
That I got, and I got, and I got
And I got off easy

There's something you would know
If you could read my mind
Or look behind my cover
Creeping around at night
Is it impossible to be an honest lover?

So I'll live and I'll die
Never be satisfied till tomorrow
Can I change this?
Arrange this to keep me from feeling so hollow?

I know I got off easy
God knows why you believe me
Hiding behind little white lies
This time I got off easy
When will you ever see
That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy
And I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

I know I got off easy
God knows why you believe me
Hiding behind little white lies
This time I got off easy
When will you ever see
That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy

I know I got off easy
When will you ever see
That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy
That I got, and I got, and I got, and I got off easy

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
