Crying late nights in your pillow
And you wonder why
Your heart's broken
A small token
Smoke screen for a lie

So rise up and take a bow
You say that you've got got good reason now
Rise up and take a bow
Trouper light of pity are on you now

So act like a heart-broken fool
Breakin' all the rules
Using your hurt as a license
You say it can't be your fault
For crying tears of salt
That seem to be loosing their savor now
Cause you've broken your vow
And your feelings are more important
You've broken it now just a useless vow
Trampled in the dustt by your own choice

So rise up and take a bow
You say that you've got got good reason now
Rise up and take a bow
Trouper light of pity are on you now

Crying late nights in your pillow
And you wonder why
Your heart's broken
A small token
Smoke screen for a lie
