lyrics

tell me why you wanna walk away
tell me why you wanna make that change
when the future's looking bright
run away and hide from sight
tell me why you wanna walk away, away

it's the i sold you out, you sold me out blues
it's the i sold you out, you sold me out blues

hey, you lost your smile, but that's okay
steady hands, you got the beat, just play
should i write you off the sitcom?
it's become a ticking time bomb
i don't wanna see you walk away, away

it's the i sold you out, you sold me out blues
because i sold you out, you sold me out, booooooo

it's a stupid game of fools
that everyone will lose
it's the i sold you out, you sold me out blues

it's a stupid game of fools
that everyone will lose
it's the i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out (you sold me out)
i sold you out
you sold me out
