Rites of Passage

With this rite of passage
Cruel twist of fate
With every turn of every card
I never see
Until it's too late
The deed is done
And leaves me wondering just where
Our love has gone
I cannot say
In honest truth
That I still trust all my feelings
For you

You knew that it was wrong
And you think that saying sorry
Is gonna make it seem alright
And maybe in this song
You will hear me for the first time
And you'll start to see the light

Living with you
Is like being parked
On double yellow lines
Waiting to be towed away
I'll pay the fines
And I'll be back
But I'm running out of reasons
To stay

You knew that it was wrong
And you think that saying sorry
Is gonna make it seem alright
And maybe in this song
You will hear me for the first time
And you'll start to see the light

You knew that it was wrong
And you think that saying sorry
Is gonna make it seem alright
And maybe in this song
You will hear me for the first time
And you'll start to see the light

With this rite of passage
I reclaim my heart
I take my leave as if on cue
I play no further part
In your self-penned dramas
Where each stolen kiss
Just goes to prove that happy endings don't exist
