"Open Heart Perjury"
© DANOLYRICS 2001
All the way through dinner,
I knew something wasn`t right,
She barely touched her food,
Hardly said a word all night,
Got home and walked in the kitchen,
Then she split my chest apart,
With the lie that she`d been living,
At the expense of my heart.
She performed open heart perjury,
When she lied about her love,
Then she motioned for dismissal,
And said she`d be packing up,
Now I know she ain`t a doctor,
And this table ain`t a witness stand,
But her open heart perjury,
Might end up killin an honest man.
You know I never thought it`d happen,
No, not to someone like me,
I wish I`d seen the warning signs,
Of what was going to be,
But now I feel the pain,
Of the choice that she made,
And her words they cut right through me,
Like a cold and sterile blade.
She performed open heart perjury,
When she lied about her love,
Then she motioned for dismissal,
And said she`d be packing up,
Now I know she ain`t a doctor,
And this table ain`t a witness stand,
But her open heart perjury,
Might end up killin an honest man.
Yeah, her open heart perjury,
Might end up killin an honest man.
She performed open heart perjury...,
When she lied about her love...
