Save Face Story Songtext
von State Champs

You know it′s sad but true, and you're barely sorry
′Cause you're a bad excuse for a save-face story

Do I speak, or wait it out?
It's hanging on the tip of my tongue
From concrete to a little doubt
From where it was to what it′s become

Now I′m seeing cracks in the pavement
We're cliche now, and I hate it
And what kills me the most is we′ve always known
It was wasted honesty

You know it's sad but true, and you′re barely sorry
'Cause you′re a bad excuse for a save-face story
Play the conversation back in my mind
Falling for the same shit every time
I'm begging for the truth from you 'til I′m blue in the face
The right fix for the wrong mistake


It′s on me, I made it seem
That even now I'm wanting you more
I′m sorry apparently
It's never gonna be like before

But still get lost in the feeling
Of us both, eyes up at the ceiling
And what kills me the most is we′ve always known
It was all just make believe

You know it's sad but true, and you′re barely sorry
'Cause you're a bad excuse for a save-face story
Play the conversation back in my mind
Falling for the same shit every time
I′m begging for the truth from you ′til I'm blue in the face
The right fix for the wrong mistake

Back and forth, cut the rope, shut the door
I don′t know what the fuck are we even fighting for
Stuck in love, and you make it hard to leave
You make it hard to breathe
Baby, baby, set me free


And there is so much on my mind (yeah, yeah)
I think we're running out of time (yeah, yeah)
You still that cool, cool kid with that stupid tricks
Who′s the winner? (Hey)
Contest of pretenders
Could you believe we've been close? ′Cause I barely remember
Let's better quit here (hey)
But you need to do it
'Cause you that cool, cool kid with that stupid tricks

You know it′s sad but true, and you′re barely sorry
(You that cool, cool kid with that stupid tricks)
'Cause you′re a bad excuse for a save-face story
Play the conversation back in my mind (stop falling)
Falling for the same shit every time
I'm begging for the truth from you ′til I'm blue in the face
The right fix for the wrong mistake
The right fix for the wrong mistake
