You see me as a judge though I deny it
and hold me like a grudge then justify it
But when you take such pains
in searching for something that explains
please take a good look at our remains
'Cause if you were everything you say
things would be different today
and maybe there's room for compromise
but signs that I get say otherwise
say anything
As hopeless as it seems I wouldn't worry
You'll get your chance to tell your side of the story
And, raising your right hand
whatever defenses you had planned
remember that when you take the stand
If you were everything you say
things would be different today
and though I'd be happy to believe
I'd have to be much more naive
say anything, 'cause I've heard everything
now I've heard everything now I've heard everything

So why do I refuse
the truth, when I clearly cannot use
the comfort of one more lame excuse
'cause if you were everything you say
things would be different today
and if you were everything you swear
we wouldn't be beyond repair
If you were everything you say
things would be different today
and if there has got to be an if
get it over with
say anything, 'cause I've heard everything
now I've heard everything I've heard everything
now I've heard everything now I've heard everything
