Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You saw the door slam, heard the hallway shake

You never saw me stop outside and wait

I had your words folded in my coat

A half-written answer caught in my throat

[Pre-Chorus]

You made a verdict from a passing scene

Left out the part that happened in between

[Chorus]

You don't know the whole story

You don't know what I carried home

You picked a side before you asked me

Then called the silence proof

I won't say I got it right

I won't pretend I never hurt you

But you don't know the whole story

You only know the part you heard

[Verse 2]

The lunchroom went quiet when I walked inside

A dozen eyes already chose a side

I kept my hands around a paper cup

And wished one person would just ask me once

[Pre-Chorus]

I had the truth, but not the perfect line

And every second made it harder to find

[Chorus]

You don't know the whole story

You don't know what I carried home

You picked a side before you asked me

Then called the silence proof

I won't say I got it right

I won't pretend I never hurt you

But you don't know the whole story

You only know the part you heard

[Bridge]

If I could turn that day around

I'd stay, I'd speak, I'd lay it out

No easy excuse, no saint to be

Just a frightened kid asking you to see

[Final Chorus]

You don't know the whole story

You don't know what I carried home

You picked a side before you asked me

But I was more than what you heard

I won't say I got it right

I won't pretend I never hurt you

Still, you don't know the whole story

There's more to me than what you heard

[Outro]

There's more to me than what you heard
