When I took you to the sea
I told you I could die.
When we climbed Mt. Prodigy,
I told you we would fly.
So wash away my memories
and clean out my eyes.
Said, wash away those memories
and clean out all of my lies.
All my lies, lies, lies.
When we walked up the Hudson
I could barely breathe in.
You took me home,
a monochrome,
and then you made me breakfast.
You saved me from the wreckage.
So take away those memories
and take out both of my eyes.
Said take away those memories
and take away all your alibis.
She gave me her eyes
and I gave her my lies.
I gave you my eyes
and you gave me your alibis.
Lies, lies, lies, lies and alibis
lies, lies, lies.
Lies, lies, lies, lies and alibis
lies, lies, lies.
