he waits for her to understand
but she won't understand at all
she waits all night for him to call
but he won't call anymore
he waits to hear her say
"forgive"
but she just drops her pearl -black eyes
and prays to hear him say
"I love you"
but he tells no more lies
~~~~~~~
he waits for her to sympathize
but she won't sympathize at all
she waits all night to feel his kiss
but always wakes alone
he waits to hear her say
"forget"
but she just hangs her head in pain
and prays to hear him say
"no more, I'll never leave again."

how did we get this far apart ?
we used to be so close together
how did we get this far apart ?
I thought this love would last forever

there is no one left in the world
that I can hold on to
there is really no one left at all
there is only you
and if you leave me now
you leave all that we were undone
there is really no one left
you are the only one
~~~~~~~~
and still the hardest part for you
to put your trust in me
I love you more than I can say
why won't you just believe ?

if only you'd never speak to me
the way that you do
if only you'd never speak like that
it's like listening to
a breaking heart
a falling sky
fire go out and friendship die
I wish you felt the way that I still do
the way that I still do
~~~~~~~~
if only you'd never look at me
the way that you do
if only you'd never look like that
when I look at you
I see face like stone
eyes of ice
mouth so sweetly telling lies
I wish you felt the way that I still do
the way that I still do
but you don't
you don't feel anymore
you don't care anymore
it's all gone
~~~~~~~~~
if only you'd never pull from me
the way that you do
if only you'd never pull like that
when I'm with you
I feel hopeless hands helplessly
pulling you back close to me
I wish you felt the way that I still do
the way that I still do
~~~~~~~~~
if only you'd ever speak to me
the way you once did
look at me the way you once did
pull to me the way you once did
but you don't
you don't feel anymore
you don't care anymore
it's all gone
it's all gone

I'm always wanting more
anything I haven't got
everything
I want it all
I just can't stop
~~~~~~~
planning all my days away
but never finding ways to stay
or ever feel enough today
tomorrow must be more
drink more dreams more beds more drugs
more lust more lies more head more love
more fear more fun more pain more flesh
more stars more smiles more fame more sex
but however hard I want
I know deep down inside
I'll never really get more hope
or any more time
any more time
any more time
any more time
~~~~~~
I want the sky to fall in
I want lightning and thunder
I want blood instead of rain
I want the world to make me wonder
I want to walk on water
Take a trip to the moon
Give me all this and give me it soon
more drinks more dreams more drugs
more lust more lies more love
but however hard I want
I know deep down inside
I'll never really get more hope
or any more time
any more time
any more time
any more time

how each of us decides
I've never been sure
the part we play
the way we are
how each of us denies any other way in the world
why each of us must choose
I've never understood
one special friend
one true love
how each of us must lose everyone else in the world
~~~~~~~~
however unsure
however unwise
day after day play out our lives
however confused
pretending to know to the end
but this isn't true this isn't right
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
this is a lie
~~~~~~~~~
how each of us believes
I've never really known
in heaven unseen and hell unknown
how each of us dreams to understand anything at all
why each of us decides
I've never been sure
the part we take
the way we are
how each of us denies every other way in the world
~~~~~~~~~
however unsure
however unwise
day after day play out our lives
however confused
pretending to know to the end
~~~~~~~~~~
but this isn't true this isn't right
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
this is a lie
but this isn't true this isn't right
this isn't love this isn't life this isn't real
this is a lie
