|
I know what you're doing, I see it all too clear
|
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
|
You really had me going, wishing on a star
|
But the black holes
|
that surround you are heavier by far
|
I believed in your confusion,
|
you were so completely torn
|
Well it must have been
|
that yesterday was the day that I was born
|
There's not much to examine,
|
there's nothing left to hide
|
You really can't be serious if you had to ask me why
|
I say goodbye...
|
|
'Cause I am barely breathing
|
And I can't find the air
|
I don't know who I'm kidding
|
Imagining you care
|
And I could stand here waiting
|
A fool for another day
|
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
|
worth the price
|
The price that I would pay
|
|
Everyone keeps asking, what's it all about?
|
I used to be so certain and I can't figure out
|
What is this attraction? I only feel the pain
|
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame
|
Will it ever change?
|
|
'Cause I am barely breathing
|
And I can't find the air
|
I don't know who I'm kidding
|
Imagining you care
|
And I could stand here waiting
|
A fool for another day
|
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
|
worth the price
|
The price that I would pay
|
But I'm thinking it over anyway...
|
|
I've come to find
|
I may never know
|
Your changing mind
|
Is it friend or foe?
|
|
I rise above
|
Or sink below
|
With every time
|
You come and go
|
Please don't come and go
|
|
'Cause I am barely breathing
|
And I can't find the air
|
I don't know who I'm kidding
|
Imagining you care
|
And I could stand here waiting
|
A fool for another day
|
But I don't suppose it's worth the price,
|
worth the price
|
The price that I would pay
|
But I'm thinking it over anyway...
