Lyrics

Sure
I’ve been embarrassed before
But nothing quite like this
It started out honestly enough
She told me one time that honesty was the most important thing to her
I couldn’t agree more
But damn
I didn’t have to see it
That was a tad uncalled for
Had I been hip to the passing of the key
I would exit stage left quite suddenly
Spare myself the awkwardness of being the fifth cog
The one you can replace without upsetting the cart
The walk down that hallway was difficult
The pattern on the carpet was as cluttered as my thoughts
And just as unwelcome as I felt at the time
As I turned around to look at her again….. I couldn’t speak
What would I say…..anyway
No harm done
I suppose in the grand scheme of things it was
As important as moving a pebble on the beach
But I didn’t know I was going to the beach
I would have packed accordingly
Maybe some sunscreen
To shield myself from the honesty that glared at me
It’s really ok though
I peel quickly
I just wish I hadn’t seen it
