I was never going to fall
(I was never going to fall)
But the smile, the face has sealed my fate
(The smile, the face)
So sweet, an addict of it all
(I was an addict of it all)
I was blind for another taste
(I have nothing left to give)

The world, has turned, black and cold
And I, can't catch my breath
You rehearsed your lines
With rhythmic details
They match, the pounding in my chest

Then summer came, and you left me with your words
The clever sounds from your mouth
They can make me feel so worthless
And you say, that I am not enough
But though my heart is breaking open
Know that I will not be broken (for you)

The person you claimed to be, is not who haunts me now
The careless lines behind those brown eyes
That you swore were true more times than I can count

Then summer came, and you left me with your words
The clever sounds from your mouth
They can make me feel so worthless
And you say, that I am not enough
But though my heart is breaking open
Know that I will not be broken

I know these words are weak and young
But spoken as I come undone
And while I drown in these mistakes
You ego swells but I can tell
You know that you're a fake.

(You cried in front of your friends)
Just to save some face
(You didn't want it to end)
In just a week I'm replaced
(You wanted me so listen, listen to me)
But can you hear me now
(You're just a sickness and a cancer)
The cancer is your filthy mouth

I know your face
I know your smile and how it plays
Into the minds of those who cling to every word you say
This isn't how I wanted to remember me and you

Your eyes are talking but your lips are standing still
Open your mouth tell me how I'm supposed to feel
My finger pointing is just a warning so I suggest you

Say you're wrong
Let's get this over
I would like to get some sleep tonight

Let's get this over, I'd like to get some sleep tonight

You make it hard for me to leave
So very hard for me to leave

By now the lies you told are weighing on your chest
If I provide the rope I know you'll do the rest
But I will not be an accessory no I'm not who you think
And I will never be your enemy so don't insult me

Say you're wrong
This could be easier if I was over her
Say you're wrong
I know she's just a girl
But she's got me standing on the edge
I'm on the edge of the world

My eyes are open for the first time
This place not yours it's in my own eyes

I am not a man who lives a life of soldiers
I am not the kind of man who walks away
I will stand up face to face or toe to toe with anyone
Yes anyone

Everything you said about me was the truth but
I just don't think that I can look at you the same
You're like a splinter that will never show its head to anyone
To anyone

Now I know that I was not the man you wanted
You know I loved you and I wanted to make you proud
My intentions were to never give myself to anyone
Look what I've done

These are the words I will say
This is the story I'll tell
When I speak your name
But you'd probably like it yourself

That's what I never could take
You wanted me when you wanted me
And the rest was just a waste of your time

I'll say the words that you won't
I thought you'd love me but you don't, you don't
And now as two become three
If you're hurting I can't see
And you're taking what's left of me

For what it's worth I believed (every word that you said)
So here is what I will say (with these last wasted breaths)

Take, take, take, take back your promises
And those sweet kisses
That I thought were only for me

To find myself at the end,
Of these lines that you're selling, it's telling
I would have always gave in
But those late nights and phone calls
Whispering everything I'd ever want

For what it's worth I believed (every word that you said)
So here is what I will say (with these last wasted breaths)

Take, take, take, take back your promises
And those sweet kisses
That I thought were only for me

You've dug, my heart out of me
I thought you'd love me but you don't 'cause
You've dug, my heart out of me
I waited for you to answer why
But waiting's not a reply

This is the story I'll tell
You wanted me when you wanted me (you wanted me)

For what it's worth I believed (every word that you said)
So here is what I will say (with these last wasted breaths)

Take, take, take, take back your promises
And those sweet kisses
That I thought were only for me

Last night I had a dream
That you decided to leave me
And no matter what I said
My persuasion fell upon your deaf ears

Don't leave me here alone, I'm not so good on my own
I'm not so good, I'm not so good on my own

Is it too late? Am I too gone?
Is there something I should know?
Am I working for nothing?
Will there ever be anything to show?

Is it true? I don't know what the storybooks have told
Though I wouldn't be so bold to say so (Bold to say so)
Will I do what I'm told? Will I play my hand or fold?
Will I stand my ground and hold? I would like to think so

But if I just walked away, would you still save me?
Or would you take back all that you gave me?

But if I just walked away, would you still save me?
Or would you take back all that you gave me?

Is it too late? Am I too gone?
Is there something I should know?
Are we working for nothing?
Is there anything to show,
for the service? Is it worthless?
All the waiting is the hardest part.

Come home my dear because I love you, I love you still

It's a slap in the face when I feel my complacency grow
It's the thrill of the chase, when you catch it you just let it go
I take for granted the grace that is given me daily I know, oh

How can you say that you love me when all that I want
All that I want is your blessing and then I am gone
Nothing I do can make up for the things I have done, oh

Your love is all we need (love is all we need)
We're gonna make it
So let's close our eyes tonight and just believe

Your love is all we need (love is all we need)
We're gonna make it
So let's close our eyes tonight and just believe

I wish I could put you into words, so it would all make sense.
I'd write you a thousand times, your faces in pages.
Run your answers the best way you can,
It's that you never thought that you'd be coming in last.
(this is the wrong time, the wrong place)
I was waiting for pages to read from,
But you never decided to show your face.
(you're always the same way, the fresh starts with stained hands wear you out)
The weekend towns, the picture frames,
It's my favorite shirt, i'm so glad you came.
And I think you're wrong, it's not just vacation,

It's more than boys and girls and late nights.
(the lines fading. why can't you see?
if you're everything, there's nothing left of me)

Don't bother now you just said enough.

And my heart left my chest so forgive me
As you leave to find that next something new
But I can't for the life of me remember when
You changed your words I love you to saying you don't know
Oh oh
Just know that you can't take back what you said
Darling i'm not in the forgiving mood
You kept on replying it was all in my head
Well you're just a liar
And I've got the proof
I've got the proof
So with these few words you'll erase me
2 years of our life's meant nothing to you
But this fool you made out of me has a lesson learned
You can't trust a lover who was never a friend
Oh oh
The end
oh oh
Just know that you can't take back what you said
Darling I'm not in the forgiving mood
You kept on replying it was all in my head
Well you're just a liar and I've got the proof
I got the proof
Oh ohh ohh
I would have offered my life taking you home
Made you my wife
But hearing you now feeling your mouth with the cowards lies
You're just a disguise
Of the girl of my dreams
But I know she's waiting for me
So ill open my eyes to the day that's before me
And leave here to find the next something new

Let's write the songs that they want
I thought they'd love us but they don't, they don't
With tails tucked between our legs
We'll find a home made of regrets
We'll stay shipwrecked and sinking
What a terrible thought to be thinking

You were with us but you let these thoughts in your head
We're not who we're supposed to be
With all the symptoms of the sickness
We have SCENE!
Are you better off leaving?

Tough words held behind my teeth
Pleading that they be set free, but they're empty
That's what some always will want
A game of who's best with their taunts
That are faceless and cred-less

You were with us but you let these thoughts in your head
We're not who we're supposed to be
With all the symptoms of the sickness
We have SCENE!
Are you better off leaving?

With every song that you sing (I can't walk away)
It's yours to the heart
And when you fly or fall (I can't walk away)
Then a new one will start
My eyes burn with hope (I can't walk away)
That you hear what we say
If this was just for the gain then may we never get paid (You can't walk away)
And the music that makes my feet move too (You can't walk away)
Is the same as the music that's inside of you (You can't walk away)
The truth is that when you can see past yourself (You can't walk away)
Your song is the same as everyone else

Let's write the songs that they want
I thought they'd love us but they don't

You were with us but you let these thoughts in your head
We're not who we're supposed to be
With all the symptoms of the sickness
We have SCENE!
You're better off leaving

And my heart left my chest so forgive me
As you leave to find that next something new
But I can't for the life of me remember when
You changed your words I love you to saying you don't know
Oh oh
Just know that you can't take back what you said
Darling i'm not in the forgiving mood
You kept on replying it was all in my head
Well you're just a liar
And I've got the proof
I've got the proof
So with these few words you'll erase me
2 years of our life's meant nothing to you
But this fool you made out of me has a lesson learned
You can't trust a lover who was never a friend
Oh oh
The end
oh oh
Just know that you can't take back what you said
Darling I'm not in the forgiving mood
You kept on replying it was all in my head
Well you're just a liar and I've got the proof
I got the proof
Oh ohh ohh
I would have offered my life taking you home
Made you my wife
But hearing you now feeling your mouth with the cowards lies
You're just a disguise
Of the girl of my dreams
But I know she's waiting for me

And leave here to find the next something new
