Watch your makeup

There's just a smudge beneath the eye

You look great in that dress

It hits every curve just right

We've got dinner at eight, and then drinks by nine

I love you so, it's our anniversary tonight



Suddenly everything shakes as if it's starting to break

And now I'm on my knees

My wife screams, "What's wrong!?" 

As the stereo plays our song, Only In Dreams



Just last Friday is when my heart failed again

I was thinking that I should find a friend

I bought her several drinks

And slipped the ring into my hand 

We drove to her place 

And let the good times roll again



Suddenly everything shakes as my protection breaks

And now I'm on my knees

And I scream, "This was wrong!" 

As I leave, the stereo plays the song, The Finishing



Is this it? 

Is this how I've spent my life? 

Lying there with a broken heart on bedroom floors?

And finally, finally I realize

I realize that I'm only a man



One thing I have to know, 

Where did the miracles go? 

And if a simple man believes, 

Will it start again with me? 



(I’m watching this screen

These lies laid out before my eyes

And how they know everything…

Everything comes easy

Well I never had it easy, I was never lucky

It was never easy



And you sit there

And you judge my commitment?

You people can say that I’m the bad guy

Because I was weak?

I was weak once or twice?



Well let me tell you:

I’m standing in the need

I am standing in the need

Because I can't control this person behind my hands)
