Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Find you in the dark
Read you like a cheap surprise
Oh, without shame
Sell me out and frame your name
[PreChorus]
I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon, you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell
[Chorus]
You towed the line
And I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, ride a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I, friend, ask you why?
[Verse 2]
Rolling back the days
With my friend, I love to play
The little one
Superman with silver gun
[PreChorus]
I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon, you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell
[Chorus]
You towed the line
And I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, ride a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I, friend, ask you why?
[Bridge]
Wait for me
Take a dive, take a piece of my life
Leave me numb
Wait for me
Tell a lie, try to take my wife
[Bridge]
Leave me numb
Wait for me
Take a dive take a piece of my life
Leave me numb
Close to me
And I'll leave you numb
[Chorus]
You towed the line
And I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, ride a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I, friend, ask you why?
[Chorus]
You towed the line
And I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, ride a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I, friend, ask you why?
[Outro]
You towed the line
And I know it was mine
Couldn't hide, ride a wave, ride a lie
Let me know, can I, friend, ask you why?
Can I, friend, ask you why?
Can I, friend, ask you why?
