The Unwritten Law

[Verse 1] Listen to me I've got a warning for you You've got to learn to take more care Because if you swim in dirty water Be careful how you dry your hair In a room within a room In a hole within a hole You've got to learn to share your secrets Or you'll lose your soul [Chorus] I've got the evidence I know you're broke The unwritten law Another town, another one-night stand You know, you broke the law [Verse 2] It's so hard to hold back When the fire is in your eyes A silver dollar in my pocket I don't like surprises I've got your souvenir Is that the price I've got to pay It hasn't been that long Since the last charade [Chorus] [Verse 3] I know you're guilty But I'm carrying the blame I took out much more than I put in And I felt the pain In a dirty little room With nowhere left to hide You told the truth with your eyes But you lied inside [Chorus][x2]
