Unretractable Facts

Second Person

The sad and unretractable fact of my devotion to you
Causes you to pause in awe of my emotion 
And you tell me you're overwhelmed and all your senses 
are kinda shaken
And I'm sitting here wishing I could have been mistaken
At one point or another I arrived at the truth 
And at a quarter to three, it might have been two 
thirds vermouth
But oh I know me so well, I know the thing about me
Is even when wasted I don't waste my honesty
And now I'm stuck in the centre of unthinkable thoughts 
I'd better show some remorse, I'd better head for the 
door
'Cause all it takes to make a statement is to say that 
it's true
So the fact is unretractable and there is nothing I can 
do about it
Damn, whatever happened to acceptable lies
I have a self to despise
I have a head and a heart so horribly open wide
You had to be scared, you couldn't be dared to decide
To do anything other than running for cover to hide
I said, Oh, I'm so sorry you know I get so verbose
Sometimes I feel like I'm just sitting removing my 
clothes
Like every layer of whatever I'm wearing is lifted away
With every article I have to say
All because I'm stuck in the centre of unthinkable 
thoughts 
I'd better show some remorse, I'd better head for the 
door
All it takes to make a statement is to say that it's 
true
But now the fact is unretractable and there is nothing 
I can do about it
And nothing I can do about it
Well it's a tragic and impractical fate that I am 
forced to contemplate
Another girl would never get in this state
I ingested the best part of seven bottles of wine
And like I'd learnt them by heart I started reciting my 
lines
And now I'm frightened and fraught, I'm distract and 
distressed
I'm too depressed, this is what I get for getting it 
off my chest
So you will have to forgive me for failing to make more 
sense
Just so you know, I hope we can be friends
Oh because I'm stuck in the centre of unthinkable 
thoughts 
I'd better show some remorse, I'd better head for the 
door
All it takes to make a statement is to say that it's 
true
And the fact is unretractable and there is nothing I 
can do about it
And there is nothing I can do about it
Nothing I can do about it
