It started with a glance, then a swift look away
But soon you were demanding a full-on play-by-play
After every call and text, eyes burning into me
And still I tried to brush aside your constant 3rd degree
I can't compete with the stories in your head
The things you think I've done, the words you swore I said
Why should I bother with the truth anymore
When the stories in your head have made me walk right out the door?
You started labeling me a person that I'm not
A liar, a cheater, a homewrecking slut
You did all of this without consulting me
Made my life fit your twisted fantasy
I can't compete with the stories in your head
The things you think I've done, the words you swore I said
Why should I bother with the truth anymore
When the stories in your head have made me walk right out the door?
Why are you so suspicious? What is that all about?
Have I ever asked what happens when you're out?
Maybe the stories in your head aren't really stories after all
Maybe it's you, baby, who should be taking the fall.
I can't compete with the stories in your head
The things you think I've done, the words you swore I said
Why should I even bother with the truth anymore
When the stories in your head have made me walk right out the door?
I can't compete with the stories in your head
The things you think I've done, the words you swore I said
Why should I even bother with the truth anymore
When the stories in your head have made me walk right out the door?
