Prior Convictions


Prior convictions,
Things I used to believe
Never fails to terrorize me
When it turns out things are not what they seem.

You should ask me
If I even want you to explain
Wouldn't make a difference
Things won't ever be the same.

A pre-conceived notion's come undone
Been shown to be a fool in front of everyone
How'd I know you'd be so hard to know?

Fading pictures
No more wounds left to heal
No surprises
When the truth was finally revealed.

You don't hear me
And I have nothing left to say
All that's left is memory
I wouldn't have it any other way

A pre-conceived notion's come undone
Been shown to be a fool in front of everyone
How'd I know you'd be so hard to know?

Prior convictions,
Things I used to believe
Never fails to terrorize me
When it turns out things are not what they seem.
