I'm cutting through, your bleeding out
|
and I would tell the truth, but I can't help myself
|
red rushes out, dissect this nerve
|
and I'll stop myself before I reach my cell
|
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
|
and you know that I'm not one to follow through
|
all these city streets the people look the same
|
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
|
you're stabbing in, permanent scars
|
and you'll justify it all inside yourself
|
you've finished me, my pulse is gone
|
and you're satisfied to put this all to hell
|
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
|
and you know that I'm not one to follow through
|
all these city streets the people look the same
|
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
|
drink the poison when you think it's over
|
(drink the poison)
|
stabbing yourself when you think it's too late
|
tragic endings are your thing; you love them
|
(tragic endings)
|
you love letting go, the ending's the same
|
drink the poison when you think it's over
|
(drink the poison)
|
inevitable, Verona lives inside of you
|
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
|
and you know that I'm not one to follow through
|
all these city streets the people look the same
|
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
|
I wasn't asking for the world
|
