Perfect Plan
Lovers and Poets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They say you're coming back
It's such a shame
The way that you lost track
Of the places you've been
And covered up in silence
You'll never get away
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
You'll never get away
(My Perfect Plan)
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
I'll change my words
I know just what to say
Erase the hurt
And take away the blame
Cuz I know that you're lies
Are covered up in silence
You'll never get away
(My Perfect Plan)
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
You'll never get away
(My Perfect Plan)
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
Cuz I know that you're lies
Are covered up in silence
You'll never get away
(My Perfect Plan)
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
You'll never get away
(My Perfect Plan)
You'll never get away
(Of this I'm certain)
