Lyrics
He said he was lyin there and it was just for you
A can of gasoline is all you need to prove your point of view
He couldn't really care if she was around
But he really didn't know what he had found
A better way of life isn't what he wanted to see
Now the truth will set her free cause she's not the way that he wants her to be
He said he was lyin there and it was just for fun
He tore your pictures off the wall and now you're not the only one
I always really thought that you could work it out
But I never really knew what it was about
A better way of life is all I want for you and me
Now the truth will set her free it's the little thing between you and me
Livin hard it's the only way you can
Not even able to seek the comfort of another man
Too strong to run away you've got the company of friends
You've gone the distance but you don't know if it will ever end
He couldn't really care if she was around
But he really didn't know what he had found
A better way of life isn't what he wanted to see
Now the truth will set her free cause she's not the way that he wants her to be
