Broken Glass
06:30
|
|||
|
staring at a wall of empty picture frames
you block out every image, where his face is shown
but you can't quite call it home
afraid to be alone, so you stay when you should go
staring at a mirror with the broken glass
it doesn't tell the truth, just reveals the past
so you just stare and cry
don't know the reasons why, it helps to get you by
well you know I'd like to help you
but you won't let me in
I've done my best to warn you
but you have such thick skin
as autumn comes to close we try to rearrange
the fires there to warm you, as the leaves change
but we still stay the same
no point in aiming blame, we both will share this pain
well you know I'd like to help you
but you won't let me in
I've done my best to warn you
but you have such thick skin
there's things we do in life we can't forgive
but we carry on
there's things we do in life we can't forget
they echo on

The Note
02:32
|

left with a note, couldn't believe she wrote
our love was caught in between
what was lost, what had never been seen
and you were home, now you're gone
I was down, she picked me up
taught me things, taught me how to love
sun went down, sun came up
I felt her touch, I knew it was enough
you were my friend, now you're nothing
left with a note, couldn't believe she wrote

lay your head next to mine
help me push the boundaries of time
I know we've got a lot to talk about
but you'll be gone by the morning's out
so just lay your head next to mine
lay your hand in mine
I don't want this to be a crime
I know you care of what others say
but that won't mean a thing someday
so just lay your hand in mine
emotion flowing like rivers, it sends a shivering quiver
down the nape of your neck and through your spine
dark clouds in December, I know they make you remember
they say that it gets easier in time, I think they lie
all the days and all the nights
all the days and all the nights
I'm sure this love will turn out right
all the days and all the nights
emotion flowing like rivers, it sends a shivering quiver
down the nape of your neck and through your spine
dark clouds in December, I know they make you remember
they say that it gets easier in time, I think they lie
I think they lie
all the days and all the nights
all the days and all the nights
I'm sure this love will turn out right
all the days and all the nights

tell me what you want me to do
we've been sitting in this room for hours now
this room not meant for two
you're looking at me, I'm looking at you
but we still can't face the truth, so come on
tell me what you want me to do
tell me what you want me to say
I know its typical of me to act this way
I remember how this all started
and we'll be leaving here broken hearted, so come on
tell me what you want me to say
and her mother said we were too young
but we didn't care we were having fun
when I think about it, it makes me so mad at myself
I'm so mad; it makes me so mad
so tell me baby what you want me to say
tell me what you want me to know
I just need you to be honest or let me go
cause I could never be your summer
you could never be my sun, so come on
tell me what you want me to know
and her mother said we were too young
but we didn't care we were having fun
when I think about it, it makes me so mad at myself
I'm so mad; it makes me so mad
so tell me baby what you want me to know
so tell me baby what you want me to know

When I'm With You
05:52
|

you've been away and I have been alone
you know the dreams I have unless you're home
cause I know you're there staring back at me
it helps me when I sleep
for twenty miles I ran and sang for you
it kills me cause it was all that I could do
to mend the truth, something you can't see
girl you belong to me
when I'm with you
whisper something typical and true
when I'm alone
wish for something deep inside my bones
I drink until it calms me down
really hate to see you around
cause it's killing me, you know I can't keep
keep the simple order of things
the house that we built for two
it's just gone now, just a wasted view
to come this far, with such a lack of truth
it always comes back to you
when I'm with you
whisper something typical and true
when I'm alone
wish for something deep inside my bones
never meant to run into this
I didn't mean to love you
I knew the risks that come with a kiss
I didn't mean to love you
I should've been a lot stronger then
I didn't mean to love you
didn't mean to love you
it's just something I had to do
when I'm with you
whisper something typical and true
when I'm alone
wish for something deep inside my bones
never meant to fall in love with you
never meant to fall in love with you
never meant to fall in love
never meant to fall
never meant to fall
