[Verse 1]
Whenever you go away from me
Go out with your friends I see that there's something in your eyes
And it looks just like a lie
Didn't I give you what you want?
Didn't I give it all to you?
Why is everything you do a little bit untrue?

[Bridge]
And every time
You act wrong
I go away from you just a little more

[Chorus]
Every little thing I take from you
Every little thing you say or do
Adds another stone to the wall I'm building
It's there you know it's true
Every little thing I feel inside
I don't want to talk about my own pride
Adds another stone to the wall I'm building
And you should know it's true

[Verse 2]
You can do just what you like
As long as you know deep inside
That I'm the only one for you
Don't you act just like you do
Didn't I make you feel so good?
Didn't I treat you like I should?
So why is everything I know that the way you act's not true?

[Bridge]

[Chorus: x3]
