Surprise Surprise

[Verse 1]
Surprise, surprise
I understand your shock at getting wise
I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid
'Cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did

[Chorus 1]
I've spent my whole adult life worrying
That the world would find me out before too long
I faint, I fail, my vision starts to blurrying
So just stay strong or get strong

[Verse 2]
Surprise, surprise
Look into these never-loving eyes
You were feeling safe while I was feeling lonely
You thought that you had known me but I wish that you had only
Known just what was wrong with me long before you did

[Chorus 2]
A life on the run from the truth is a gun
With its barrel pointed deep down in your throat
And one day you'll say enough of this self-defeating stuff
One false move, that's all she wrote

[Bridge]
And on those mornings when I'm lying
In our bed alone and realize I'm old
My mind begins to wish that I was flying
It's not my mind, it's my soul

[Verse 1]
Surprise, surprise
I understand your shock at getting wise
I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid
'Cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did

[Refrain]
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
