Counting days, counting days. Since my love up and got lost on me. And every breath that I've been taken. Since you left feels like a waste on me. I've been holding on to hope.
[Verse 1]. It ain't no wonder why we lose control. When we're always heart attack away from falling in love. Well, I know that we've been hardly holding on.
I thought that I've been hurt before. But no one's ever left me quite this sore. Your words cut deeper than a knife. Now I need someone to breathe me back to life.
All my friends think I got money now. And their girlfriends think that I'm funny now. It's like all they ever talk about. . You knew me then but you don't know me now.
Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh. (When you're dead and gone). Oh-Oh-Oh. Oh-Oh-Oh. (When you're dead and gone). . One year ago with a flower in hand. One year ago we wrote our names in the sand.
Never thought I'd end up here. Now our future seems so clear. I can see the top of the world down here. . Drawing on the window pane. Wanna hear them say my name.
(Something about you). . You'd never see me cry. But I've done it. Maybe it's all a lie. But who doesn't?. . Pay the innocence you left and I stay. Time is moving, getting goes just one way.
So what's it gonna be, the fix up or the falling out?. It's hard to get a read on the signal that you're sending out. And if you wanna leave, then there's not much to talk about.
Turn on the lights I think I'm losing strength. I'll wait forever till it all make sense to me. The room is spinning while I'm standing still. I need a remedy to lift me up.
So I've given it up. How could this ever seem so simple. Waiting for love. But now you're the one who's mixing signals. . You say that you're sorry. But you're asking what are we.
Did we ever know where we were going?. Every time I turn around, just another ghost. Misreading every feeling. You would think I had the worst intentions.
Wait just a little bit longer. Before you stab me in the back and walk away. 'Cause I've grown a little bit stronger. And now you're choking on those deadly words you ate.
Thought I wouldn't last a minute. Now you wanna make the minutes last. If that's not amiss what do we call that?. . Maybe I messed up a little. Or maybe I'm a little messed up.
When it all began, was it time that we asked for?. Or was it anything to feel complete forevermore?. Wanna see myself like I used to back then. But every time I turn around I'm in LA again.
Three thousand miles away I'm feeling something desperate. Came with one life to change so you're the one I left with. I think I found myself in the new light today.
So what's it mean. When every dream I have's about you now?. I can't believe. You get to me the way you do somehow. . It's criminal. . Believe me. It's easy to let this cut deeper.
I know that we are upside down. So hold your tongue and hear me out. I know that we were made to break. So what? I don't mind. . You kill the lights, I'll draw the blinds.
If it's all the same. I'd say you're losing me again. If truth be told, I blame the monsters in your head. You'll blame me when you turn off the lights.
When I tell the story of this decade. The memories and melodies are never the same I knew that we prevailed. Knew it all too well. Never end up stale.
When all else fails, I'll just assume I'm overtired. But I'll go tooth and nail to find a way to stay inspired. She's got a beautiful mind but my heart strings are bending.
