Song Description

Frustrated with life and relying on advice and comforting words, but things don't turn out as promised

Lyrics

"Clich�©"
�© 2006 Megan Manoram

I always try what you suggest I never thought to even question
With your guarantee I didn't believe that I should bother with discretion
So I took that subtle knife and ran it left to right three times
And would you believe a satisfying bleed eluded me
I regret the choice of words but I can see no way around it
So in the meantime honey would you just put your money where your mouth is

'Cause you said release would come if I were patient so I waited
and peace of mind would find me along the way so I stayed

There's nothing left to say so I'm planning my escape but the best that I've got is not reason enough to bother
If I slowly back away it won't be so hard to take and when you look around to figure it out it's just over
(But) Remember what was said belongs to you belongs to me so don't go thinking you can give away the ending

'Cause you said release would come if I were patient so I waited
and peace of mind would find me along the way so I stayed

Well nothing's coming up or out right and it certainly ain't roses
And I would give part of my heart right here tonight if it meant I could
Feel a little less violent inside.

I hate to sound clich�© I'll try to find another way but in the meantime honey could you just put your money where your mouth is
