Lyrics

Saving Face

You did it for
The evidence
You wanted more
More confidence
A pat on the back
You're saving face
Now your hands are tied
Now your hands are tied

Make it all better
You made me this way
Make it all better
You made me this way

You did it for
The approval
You wanted to be
More useful
A pat on the back
You're saving face
Now your hands are red
Now your hands are red

Make it all better
You made me this way
Make it all better
You made me this way

You're pointing the finger
It's never your fault
The feelings still linger
'Til you break it apart
You want my opinion
You never will take
Won't even admit
You made a mistake

Make it all better
You made me this way
Make it all better
You made me this way
