Why do you bend the words i say
you hear things that i never say
You lay a bed of lies for me
I stumble most unwillingly.
I should relish you
You should cherish me
You could banish me
Soon we'll see the truth.
You see my thoughts unravelling
listen closely to what I'm saying
Hear me speaking this once to you
you can't finish what's left unthrough.
Sing a song to me, live what cannot be.
Live so carefully, always on guard for what you cannot see.
You watch it pass on day by day
hoping for things to go your way
You cannot stop what's been undone
the war goes on, you have not won.
Hear me speaking this once to you
you can't finish what's left unthrough.
Sing a song to me, live what cannot be.
Live so carefully, always on guard for what you cannot see.
You watch it pass on day by day
hoping for things to go your way
you cannot stop what's been undone
the war goes on, you have not won.
You never see things through, until they're through with you.
You watch me pass you day by night
you wish for things that can't go right.
You cannot stop what's been undone
the war goes on you have not won.
