Are you having trouble finding sleep at night?
Or does your lack of conscience tell you
Everything's all right?

I trust your good intentions
That you're watching over friends
You must think that I'm crazy
If I don't see through that grin

So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down (Talk me down)
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another
Boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out (Sell me out)
Everywhere you go
I just wanna know
What your best friend knows
(What your best friend knows)


So vindictive you'll say anything you like
The smile you fake, the steps you take
You know you never could get it right

Talk is cheap
So make believe your secrets find the grave
It's too late
You gave up
Your last chance to walk away

So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down (Talk me down)
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another
Boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out (Sell me out)
Everywhere you go
I just wanna know
What your best friend knows

You stand a little too tall
Say a little too much
You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue
You tried a little too hard
Now I'm calling that bluff
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical (Typical)
You're so cynical (Cynical)
Couldn't have me
I didn't want you
You're selling me out
To the girl I can't afford to lose

You stand a little too tall
Say a little too much
You're gonna bite that know-it-all tongue
You tried a little too hard
Now I'm calling that bluff
Big plans are coming undone
That's just typical (Typical)
You're so cynical (Cynical)
Couldn't have me
I didn't want you
You set yourself up to lose

So tell me what your best friend knows
That I don't know
Tell me why you talk me down (Talk me down)
Wherever you go
You're a saint, you're a queen
And I'm just another
Boy without a crown
Tell me why you sell me out (Sell me out)
Everywhere you go
I just wanna know
What your best friend knows
(What your best friend knows)
I'm never gonna let this go
(What your best friend knows)
(What your best friend knows)
