  • [Verse 1]
    Started out as a local love
    Nothing really physical
    I fell, nice and clean, the way you portrayed yourself to me
    Through that screen, I wanted to believe everything
    And then this local love went beyond the insular
    You took me for an 8-year ride though you were never by my side
    I always wanted to believe
    Now this is what I'm questioning

    [Chorus]
    As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell
    I won't forget, so why should I forgive?
    Supply me with one reason why, boy?

    [Verse 2]
    The war rolled on and on, I left that land my home
    We watched your hair go grey, that stressful manly shade
    You wore it well, no one could tell the situation was hell
    But lies shone in your eyes
    As you were the first in line to use those bugs up high
    The coward's weapon of choice
    But you got that winner's smile
    And you know how to leave ‘em moist
    We can never know the hands we're in, until we feel them grip
    Choking off our air supply, but I don't cry
    Every day I look, every day I see
    That good war music still getting written for me

    [Outro]
    As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell
    I won't forget, so why should I forgive?
    No, not as long as we both shall live

    As if you couldn't tell, I'm mad as hell
    I won't forget, so why should I forgive?
    No, not as long as we both shall live

    These vital lies just don't come in my size
