lyrics

You picked up your pieces and started moving on

As I begun to realize the scope of what I’d done

And I wept all afternoon

I just wanted to fly home.



You’re lying through your teeth and you forget that I can tell

Believing you is the difference between heaven and hell

And I still call out your name

Across canyons coasts and planes.



Talk to me of love and liberty

Give me strength to make it through my day

Be the one I’m always trying for

Giveth and taketh away.



I used to love this place but now I hate it with a fire

And every moment here reminds me what I’m pining for

So I’m disappearing soon

And you won’t catch me.



I hope that you get happy

I hope that happens soon

I hope you don’t forget me when you’re new love starts to bloom

I could never forget you

Even if i wanted too

Oh God what have I done?



Be The only one worth dying for

Giveth and taketh away.
