[Words and music by Steven Stell]
|
|
I've had enough
|
Of these worthless words you speak
|
And it's become too much for me to take
|
Can you reach inside of my dead heart
|
And restore my faith, because it's lost
|
Lost in your hopeless, empty eyes
|
Eyes so blind to all that's real
|
It's a shame that you will never see
|
See what you've left inside of me
|
|
Take the time to do it right
|
And cleanse yourself within this light
|
Disconnect to re-invent
|
what is it that you lack
|
that holds you back somehow?
|
Break me down just once again
|
You'll find no answers within
|
One false move unlocks the truth
|
Who is it that once said
|
"The past repeats itself"
|
Who fucking cares!
|
And so it has to end
|
There's no reason to pretend
|
And as the seasons change
|
We find there's no one left to blame
|
So when all is said and done
|
I find I'm not the only one
|
This lovely misery we shared
|
Was all for nothing
|
Love gone wrong
|
But was it ever really truly right
|
Who's to know and who's to say
|
There's no reason to stay true in vain
|
Say what you will to ease your pain
|
And I should've seen it from the start
|
A fake that hides behind a fragile smile
|
Can you truly build a perfect life
|
With designs custom made to suit a whore
|
|
Take the time to do it wrong
|
and see what's been missed all along
|
Talk is cheap and so are you
|
Whatever will this poor girl do to free herself?
|
And if you ever do decide
|
To take hold of your makeshift life
|
Wipe away all of your tears
|
And realize that no one cares
|
you've failed again
|
You're on your own
|
And so it has to end
|
There's no reason to pretend
|
And as the seasons change
|
We find there's no one left to blame
|
So when all is said and done
|
I find I'm not the only one
|
This lovely misery we shared
|
Was all for nothing
|
Rise....And soar above the rest
|
And realize you've passed their test
|
To turn back now
|
would surely crush all you've gained
|
and that would be quite a shame
|
So swallow it as it comes
|
beacause too much is not enough
|
And if our paths cross again
|
don't dare speak a word
|
I've heard it all before
|
save your dying breath
|
I don't care anymore
|
There's no more you and me
|
but please don't fail to see
|
That everything we had
|
still lives in memories...
|

|
|
And so the cycle continues
|
Outstretched arms
|
won't you warm me with your cold embrace
|
and fuel my hate just once again
|
Deep inside there's still a part of me
|
That longs for your faithless, bitter touch
|
But these feelings never really last
|
no longer slave to your foul kiss
|
I have washed my hands of all of this
|
I've regained my life, you're dead to me
|
Take the time to do it right
|
and cleanse yourself within this light
|
Disconnect to re-invent
|
What is it that we lack, that holds us back somehow?
|
And If you ever do decide
|
to take hold of your makeshift life
|
wipe away all of your tears
|
And Realize that no one cares
|
we've failed again
|
you're on your own
|
And so it has to end
|
There's no reason to pretend
|
And as the seasons change
|
We find there's no one left to blame
|
So when all is said and done
|
I find I'm not the only one
|
This lovely misery we shared
|
Was all for nothing...
