I've learned how to wait, I know not to beg.
|
I know I shouldn't ask why I wake up feeling dead.
|
(Say forever, that's a dirty word
|
Will you stay here, that's a dirty girl)
|
Perform of my life, performance of your life.
|
(Act two, scene four, line three
|
I want this room, just for me, just for me)
|
|
You said you'd never be mine, you swore it to me until the end of time.
|
You said that love's never kind,
|
I memorize these lines, practice them every night.
|
|
We can talk it out, tell each other lies.
|
We can just pretend today isn't goodbye.
|
(It will be soon, now
|
heard that before
|
You better polish your speech
|
before you hit the floor...)
|
|
Won't you tell me what are we fighting for?
|
Do you want me here do you know for sure?
|
You know the coldest face is the worst to me
|
and I won't calm down 'till I get to you
|
|
You know that I wish I could undo this role
|
Let's go back to what, what we came here for
|
