This city is haunted by the ghost of failure I am one and you are one We've spent this whole time on the run From a lie that I told That you closed your eyes and you chose to believe
So now you ask me for honesty Just to take a second, breathe I'm not good enough for you You were never good enough to me No one's ever good enough to be Or have something so naïve
When I broke my hand on your car When you told me you were leavin' And I begged for your forgiveness My broken fingers bleedin' My heavy heart repeatin', afraid, Just stay here with me
Then you took your clothes off instead And you danced around my room Don't worry, you said, 'Cause the end is coming soon And we'll meet again someday And we'll toast these stunning ruins For the bride I'll never be And the groom
Now I picture you like snowflakes Like desperate pouring rain Like the beating of the drum In the parade of the insane You are the whisper in my ear When I wake and no one's here There's just the echo of your name
So now you ask me for honesty I close my eyes, breathe, I'm the one who always is So ready to leave To be a distant memory To be a ship disappearing in the sea
And I crashed upon your rocks When I heard your voice singing And I begged for your love With my busted ears ringing My hopeful heart repeating You are more than the promise of the sea
Then you took your clothes off instead And you danced around my room Don't worry, you said, 'Cause the end is coming soon And we'll meet again someday And we'll toss the cursed ruins Of the bride I'll never be And the groomTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
