This is a story of a story that I told you I thought the truth would set me free A big mistake cause I knew that I knew better I should have just let it be I can't believe how wrong I was To think that you'd understand I can't go back to how it was Before I threw it away Oh, now that we're coming clean Things ain't what they seem You don't know the half of it Just being honest That's what you wanted Sometimes you can't forgive and forget I told you everything that did and didn't happen I'd never do it again Maybe it's better if I just don't tell you anything And keep your head in the sand I can't believe how wrong I was To think that you'd understand I can't go back to how it was Before I threw it away Oh, now that we're coming clean Things ain't what they seem You don't know the half of it Just being honest That's what you wanted Sometimes you can't forgive and forget Sometimes you can't forgive and forget Oh, now that we're coming clean Things ain't what they seem You don't know the half of it Just being honest That's what you wanted Sometimes you can't forgive and forget Sometimes you can't forgive and forget
