CLOSE UP ON THE QUIET ONES LYRICS

"Survivor"

So hang yourself by your good name,
and fight 'till I tell you what you wanted to hear.
Oh, self righteous coward, hide away behind your wife.
And she'll fight your battles for you while you're sleeping
with another. Call me out, call me out. I didn't forget. Oh.

Wait, I'm not finished yet,
I'm starting to wonder how you held it together?
Telling her you're forever.
Could you find me? I was in it for the fun.
Keep me accountable. Stand up, look right,
convince them they'll change tonight.

Just so you know, she still loves you
even though you're the worst kind of man.
So here's your second chance, she's better than me.
I would have left you on the side of the road
with nowhere to go. So hold on tight,
and savor every kiss goodnight.

Wait, I'm not finished yet, I'm just getting started.
Did you feel a thing while she was beating herself
into you? She whips you quick with the swing of her hips.
Oh no, not another victim. The count's getting higher,
there are no survivors, and you're not the man you pretend to be.
I'll let them see.

Oh, we see through you.
Count me out. Hold you up to the standards
you set for me. Find another friend
and get your second chance.
I'm going home, it's getting late, and
I don't know you anymore.
