Intro:
Verse:
Pardon me for saying so, but you look more pitiful
Than I had ever imagined, despite perfect fashion
And your photographs depict you so differently.
I always thought you would be some sort of match for me.
So let's decide who can survive
Stomping feet and racing beats of hearts that don't ever slow.
Then I'll write letters on
White paper expressing my deep dissapointment.
Dripping where I stand from my watery hands,
Hoping to get past the open bedroom door,
Where her clothes on the floor remind me of our conversation,
The feeling of slight hesitation to turn out the light.
Fourteen days now since we started to complicate the situation.
I'm not hiding I'm just buying some time for us to find the back door.
We will come out when it's safe for us.
When it's safe for us..
When it's safe for us
Ooh
For us
Ooh
Outro:
There's nothing left to say
To excuse the way that I've behaved.
I still feel him gripping like a stain
To this fabric, torn at every seam,
Then thrown away
Why should I take all the blame for my mistakes?
You were there with every promise made to break.
When did you become the one without regret?
Kill me, burn me down, I swear I won't forget.
When did you become the one without regret?
Kill me, burn me down, I swear I won't forget.
