Artist: barenaked ladies
Song: the wrong man was convicted
Who?s lonely now?
Which one of us is suffering?
Who?s in his cups?
Which one of us recovering?
Who likes to look at pictures
And cries, but way too late?
Who doesn?t want to change a thing
Accepting it was fate
The wrong man was convicted
You know I did the deed
I thought that you would wait for me
Your wants I needn?t heed
The wrong man lies beside you
And waits for you to wake
And all because I lacked conviction
The judgment?s my mistake
Who?s breathless now?
Who only hyperventilates
Who?d die for you?
Who?s dying inside anyways
Which one of us is sunshine and
Which one?s growing dim?
While two men dream of you at night
Do you just dream of him?
The wrong man was convicted
You know I did the deed
I thought that you would wait for me
Your wants I needn?t heed
The wrong man lies beside you
And waits for you to wake
And all because I lacked conviction
The judgment?s my mistake
Who?s lonely now?
Who?s reaching out to no one?
Who?s lonely now?
It takes one to know one
I changed my mind
You said that I could change it back
I wanted space and now
Change has fallen through the cracks
If I?m again beside your body
Don?t tell me where it?s been
It?s cruel, unusual punishment
To kiss fingerprinted skin
The wrong man was convicted
You know I did the deed
I thought that you would wait for me
Your wants I needn?t heed
The wrong man lies beside you
And waits for you to wake
And all because I lacked conviction
The judgment?s my mistake
It?s my mistake
It?s my mistake
It?s my mistake
