'I’m here for you' she said
And we can stay for awhile,
My boyfriend’s gone,
We can just pretend.
Lips that need no introduction
Now who’s the greater sin,
Your drab eyes seem to invite
(tell me darling) Where do we begin.

Was this over before
Before it ever began
Your kiss
Your calls
Your crutch
Like the devils got your hand
This was over before
Before it ever began
Your lips
Your lies
Your lust
Like the devils in your hands

Everyone in this town
Is seeing somebody else
Everybody’s tired of someone
Our eyes wander for help
Prayers that need no answer now
I’m tired of who I am
You were my greatest mistake
I fell in love with your sin
Your littlest sin

Was this over before
Before it ever began
Your kiss
Your calls
Your crutch
Like the devils got your hand
This was over before
Before it ever began
Your lips
Your lies
Your lust
Like the devils in your hands

Failure is your disease
You want my outline drawn
You are my greatest failure
Discourse your saving song

Was this over before
Before it ever began
Your kiss
Your calls
Your crutch
Like the devils got your hand
This was over before
Before it ever began
Your lips
Your lies
Your lust
Like the devils in your hands

Was this over before
Before it ever began
Your kiss
Your calls
Your crutch
Like the devils got your hand
This was over before
Before it ever began
Your lips
Your lies
Your lust
Like the devils in your hands

Behind the Song:
'when you know you shouldn’t be in the relationship - get out, even though it may be comfortable, the end result will be the same (pain.) that was me. i stayed because it was easy, it wasn’t the right thing to do. in the end, i walked away with regrets, failure, and broken friendships. The title was suggested by our friend Nick Pollice.' - Stephen Christian
