i close my eyes, start thinking
longing for a life less lonely
looking for a purpose, show me
give me truth
i know my mind, i trust my heart
for some reason my feet won’t start
running away from you
so spare the jubilee
and plastic treasure
a fading fire set free
and gone forever
regret won’t change your mess to something better
so face the fact you can’t look back, no never
there’s nothing you can do, there’s nothing you can say
the damage happens fast but lasts forever and ever
now, a moment lost, receding
save it for a song worth singing
maybe for the game you’re cheating
tell me you
don’t know the rhymes, forgot the rules
the same old tricks i used on you
won’t work, so what’s the use?
don’t pin your hopes on me
for something clever
the die hard zealots preach
the fraud bestseller
regret won’t change your mess to something better
so face the fact you can’t look back, no never
there’s nothing you can do, there’s nothing you can say
the damage happens fast but lasts forever and ever
don’t make this it
just give it time
instead of a finish line
we made the best of everything
we gave our independence
and i’m not finished
we may be complicated
but so is good-bye
regret won’t change your mess to something better
so face the fact you can’t look back, no never
there’s nothing you can do, there’s nothing you can say
the damage happened fast
the time to run has passed
the shadow that you cast
will stretch forever
