Truth, truth everywhere
But not a drop to drink
You can think what you like
But it's not like what you think
Talk, talk everywhere
Banished you can tell
A thousand ears to turn away
Not one mouth to stay closed

Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return this where you found it

Eyes, eyes everywhere
And two more that now hold
The pallor of your face
When all your palest lies are told

Hands, hands tethered fast
To bonds you'd wish they'd hold
To forgive completely only serves to let them go

Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return this where you found it

A bed we built
Milk crates and guilt
Well I will lay you down
On sheets of blame
I'll lay you down with me again

Truth, truth
Hand it down
And we'll swallow it whole
To avoid the taste
But what's inside
We'll never know

Bride for the king of blame
I'm queen of apology
You see we take all care
But no responsibility
Return me where you found me
