she called me in a panic
begged for me to answer
So I did...
And we sat in silence
oh, I remember that
crazy free fall feeling
just waitin' to hit the bottom
and I seem to recall
the worst part of it all
when you spit in my face
told me I'd been replaced
all I wanted..
was to feel something
but you never let me.

now you love me
now you're sorry
now you finally see
now you want me
I'm sorry but I
-I feel nothing

she said "c'mon
take a chance on me"
well, I did...
and it cost me everything
even if I wanted to
I've got nothing left to give you
and I seem to recall
that you "never loved me at all"
what's wrong with you?
that just can't be true
all I wanted...
was to feel something
but you told me to forget it

now you love me
now you're sorry
now you finally see
now you want me
I'm sorry but I
-I feel nothing

I look down at my hands
try to feel again
what was once so heavy in them
but it's long gone
and the worst thing ever
watching the one
who loves you pretend
to love someone else
I don't dream anymore
it's too dangerous
to wake up with
the thought of us

if I don't ever listen
why are you still talking?
if you're gonna leave me
why aren't you walking?

look me in the eyes
and tell me that
I won't cry because I
know you're lying
I couldn't take another hit
never thought that
I'd ever raise my fist to you
we've crossed these lines
there's no going back
we're both in dangerous territory
which one will make it out?

if I don't deserve better
why did you fall apart in my arms?
if we're meant to be together
why did I have to become someone else?

all these questions...
we already know the answers.

you are a
crisp white
tee shirt
I want to
hang you
in my closet
and only
take you out
to show
my friends
how good
you look on me
in a manner
of course
in which
I don't seem
to care
maybe I'll
throw you
on the floor
when I meet
some random
girl at a bar
you never know
you never know
until you're
lying there
watching them
so before
you treat me
like an object
remember
how bright
you are
how nice
you are
to me
and any day
you could fade
and I could
give you away.

we were left here
empty and ready
to fall into decay
used to be so much life
and in the dark,
there were bright lights

the home we built
caught on fire and
burned to the ground
there's just a skeleton
a naked foundation that
used to hold our dreams

we were torn down
condemned to demolition
we tied the knot to
the chain on the wrecking ball
we crumbled
under...

the roads we pioneered
are long overgrown
but we still know
the way by heart
a rhythmic pounding
from my very bones

if my words escape me
like vapors
my thoughts betray me
like lovers

let the night get the
best of me
let tomorrow get the
rest of me

I want to feel the night
in my hair
I want to feel nothing
but your hands
whoever you are

if my intentions twist
like a road
my actions commit
me to follow

let the memory fade
like the sun
let the night take me
like a stranger

I want to feel the night
in my hair
I want to feel nothing
but your hands
whoever you are
whoever you are
whoever you are

I know why I woke up angry
can kick you out of my life
but can't get you out of my dreams
still trying to believe that
you would actually do this to me
I just don't understand a move you make

do you see me sometimes
when you close your eyes
it is worth being hurt
or fighting for?

I dance like a woman possessed
trying to shake your memory
but everybody sees
you inside of me

oh the things that go unsaid
that bounce around in
my head like a bullet
the last thing I needed
was another hole to fill
why didn't you just shoot to ****?

do you see me sometimes
when you close your eyes
it is worth being hurt
or fighting for?

I dance like a woman possessed
trying to shake your memory
but everybody sees
you inside of me

I didn't know when
you were giving me a light
that you would lead
me into darkness
I didn't think when
we were making out
I was making the biggest
mistake of my life

should've left me
before I loved you
believe me
I never wanted to

I never knew while
I was falling in love
I was falling into
the deepest hole
how could I know
you wrapped your arms
around me just to
stab me in the back?

should've killed me
before we built our life
believe me
I just wanted that night

can't hate you
for what you didn't do
can't blame you
for what I should've done

should've never
lit that cigarette
that ****** burned
my fortress down.
