I’m sorry that I can’t be
You’re always next to me
When I can’t be flattering
To what we’re witnessing

And I don’t mean what I don’t know at all
To smithereens I will blow away from all

Sometimes I might feel
When you compete with me
That you won’t just like it
Oh yeah

To tell you that I’ll right all these wrongs
In ivory towers I found my home
Cause when it’s over, I think it’s on
In ivory towers I found my home

I’m sorry that I can’t be
You’re always next to me
When I can’t be flattering
To what we’re witnessing

And I don’t mean what I don’t know
To smithereens I will blow away from all

Sometimes I might feel
When you compete with me
That you won’t just like it
Oh yeah

To tell you that I’ll right all these wrongs
In ivory towers I found my home
Cause when it’s over, I think it’s on
In ivory towers I found my home

I’ll tell you a lifelong thing
I’ll tell you a lifelong reel
I dream about all these things
The faces of all that did me wrong
I’ll cry and wake up in tears
Not even these ivory towers work
Not even that I admit it
And keep me safe underneath it all
I’ll tell you a lifelong thing
Lifelong thing
I’ll tell you a lifelong secret
I’ll tell you a lifelong weakness
I dream about all my secrets
The faces of all that I did wrong
