"only human" lyrics

Think I was 12 when I decided you were king
And knew everything about everything
Now you're unraveling
It's not that you've fallen completely off from grace
But all these new shadows across your face
I think they're scaring me

Now it's nice to have a conversation
Cheers across the table
Talk about the world
But you're saying things that come off ugly
Sinking from above me
Make my stomach curl

I know that you're only human
But why can't you lie to me
I'd kill for the king I knew when
I was still blind to the things that I'd rather not know

There's things that I'd rather not know

Like shallow comments about your secretary
Never thought I'd question your fidelity
And I still really don't think you would
Cause insecurity's a funny thing
And if Freud has any real point to make
Than we are probably the same under the hood

Now it's nice to have a conversation
Cheers across the table
Talk about the world
But you're crossing lines that make me nervous
Probably liquid courage
But it still hurts

I know that you're only human
But why can't you lie to me
I'd kill for the king I knew when
I was still blind to the things that I'd rather not know
I get that you're going through it
But why can't you fight for me?
I'd kill for the king I knew when
I was still blind to the things that I'd rather not know

There's things that I'd rather not know
There's things that I'd rather not know
