|
I came back to get my things
|
thank you for getting the door
|
but I don't feel right walking in no more...
|
|
It's quiet, I'm cold
|
I did my crying at home
|
and I'm numb now
|
I'm numb now
|
|
Before I'm on my way
|
I've one more thing to ask
|
Was it worth the price you paid
|
for my never coming back?
|
|
Why did you mess with forever?
|
Such a long time
|
to be unkind
|
Why did you mess with forever?
|
|
Don't you call me cruel
|
cruel is what you're making me do
|
I stick to my rules
|
I'm at odds with me now
|
Do I look my love in the eyes and say goodbye
|
|
Before I'm on my way
|
I've one more thing to ask
|
Was it worth the price you paid
|
for my never coming back
|
|
Why did you mess with forever?
|
What a long time
|
to be unkind
|
Why did you mess with forever?
|
|
You ask to kiss me once goodbye
|
but you already did with somebody else's lips
|
|
Tell the tiny chemicals
|
the ones you hold responsible
|
they lost me
|
you lost me
|
Now everything inside me tells me I sould run to you
|
and throw my arms around you
|
Hold your steaming crying cheeks against my own
|
and tell you nothing's wrong
|
|
But wrong is what you were when you forgot
|
that we were going on
|
that we were going on
|
that we were going strong
|
|
Tell me why did you mess with forever?
|
What a long time
|
to be unkind
|
Tell me why did you mess with forever?
|
|
