It's easier to paint you as a lover or a friend Than to say you were a stranger that I never truly met This metaphoric picture makes it easier to see That I'll always love you deeper than you'll ever feel for me It's stupid truly stupid How I hate to love you so When all you did was live a lie And pull me down below I rest my head in metal, voices screaming what I can't yet say to you I cry out loud and everyone hears words I say are only meant for you What's it like to sit alone Love nobody but yourself? Why do I still follow you, let you keep me on this shelf? I miss the blue of your canoe You used to parade 'round While singing me to a golden slumber Paddling to ground What happened to the girl I knew Who wore her hair in curls? What Faustian bargain did you give in to for your pearls? It's stupid truly stupid How I hate to love you so You never even said goodbye How could I ever know? You're cold as ice You're never nice Why do I still come back? I think I hoped That I could rope You back in line with me I rest my head in metal, voices screaming what I can't yet say to you I cry out loud and everyone hears words I say are only meant for you What's it like to sit alone love nobody but yourself? Why do I still follow you, let you keep me on this shelf? Canoes to yachts Hid away your locks Where'd the girl I knew Take off to Switched your bicycles for convertibles Left me gasping in your dust All you can behold Are the fields of gold That you signed your soul away to When did you decide That it hurt your pride To say the words "I love you"? You're withering away Withdrawing day by day Your heartbeats I once fell asleep to Never even play Oh was it worth it? Trading all your mortal goods my love? When did you change your mind and find that I was not enough? I rest my head in metal, voices screaming what I can't yet say to you I cry out loud and everyone hears words I say are only meant for you What's it like to sit alone Withering away? Why do I still follow you? Why do I still need to stay?Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
