lyrics

You’ve got no right to complain
You think that everything’s just a game
Let’s see who’s winning when the sinning catches up to you
You’ve got a sad, sad refrain

So why should we believe you now?

The paper trail never lies
You’ve left more tracks than you realize
And now your answer’s like a dancer leaping over me
But it’s all clear in your eyes

So why should we believe you now?
Why should we believe you now?

It’s never clear where you are
Your alibis are just too bizarre
I’m growing tired of your wired, rambling monologues
Just save that shit for the bar

So why should we believe you now?
Why should we believe you now?
Yeah why should we believe you?
Why should we believe you?
Why should we believe you now?
