The Whole Story Lyrics by Take Cover

The Last Word

0

[Verse 1]
I was down on my luck
Like the world was pulled from under me
So take a seat and listen up
It's time I told you everything
And I've got a lot to say
[Chorus]
I wish you could see me now
‘Cause I'm doing it for myself
But you never believed in me so you left for someone else
And I swore I'd hate you forever, yeah, kept it all inside
Then I wrote it down on paper
So the world will know the whole story tonight
[Verse 2]
It's funny how you think you know someone
After all you've been through together
Then they act like a stranger
I guess that's how it goes but I just wanna say
That you don't know what you've been missing
[Chorus]
I wish you could see me now
‘Cause I'm doing it for myself
But you never believed in me so you left for someone else
And I swore I'd hate you forever, yeah, kept it all inside
Then I wrote it down on paper
So the world will know the whole story tonight
[Bridge]
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
The whole story tonight
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
I wrote it down on paper so the world will know the whole story tonight
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
The whole story tonight
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
I wrote it down on paper so the world will know
[Chorus
I wish you could see me now
‘Cause I'm doing it for myself
But you never believed in me so you left for someone else
And I swore I'd hate you forever, yeah, kept it all inside
Then I wrote it down on paper
So the world will know the whole story tonight
[Outro]
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
The whole story tonight
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
The whole story tonight
(All I wanted was somebody to listen)
I did it for myself
