(Why, why don't you? The several things are spun in your defense)
(While I'm making all the opposite of sense)
Never underestimate your mouth
Leaving Minnesota left me stranded in the South
Learning everyone's the same, we just fess up our own ways
Except, this lonely night call
It's sad, it's sad
It's just so sad, sad
Safer if you talk instead
Safer if I call you dad
Oh, but we tried to pick up
I missed you, my friend
Several things are spun in your defense
I'm making all the opposite of sense
Caught up in a lie I couldn't keep
Faking happy just to keep the peace
(You know the routine)
Twisted logic stirring in my head (it'll be alright, son)
Kansas City sorrow make a list and call it debt
I know everyone's the same, we just follow our own ways
Except on this lonely night call
It's sad, it's sad
It's just so sad, sad
Safer if you talk instead
Safer if I call you dad
Oh, but we tried to pick up
I missed you, my friend

Caught up in a lie I couldn't keep
Faking happy just to keep the peace
I spoke with you last night
Not sure if you know
We're a sentence from a fight
But that joke's got me laughing
At least one of us keeps this happy
Yeah!
Faking happy just to keep the peace
All along knowing that peace belongs to me
