lyrics

We’re all countries with our allegiances
I can’t make any sense with them,
You wanted me here, Now that you got me
Right where you want me, redraw the boundaries
It’s not breaking a truce if you break it again
I should’ve expected to be in this mess
So go back to your life, back to that comfort
I’m glad could help wake you and inspire

Yea you’re welcome
Honey you’re welcome
Yea you’re welcome

It takes time to heal betrayal
And while you repair your I rot in this jail
Its not breaking a heart if its already broken
I should be stronger have learned to resist
But weak is the spirit caged for too long
I’m glad I could help you get in touch with yours

Yea you’re welcome
Honey you’re welcome
Yea you’re welcome
Yea you’re welcome
Hey don’t mention it
It’s my pleasure to give you these gifts
