How many times does it take
just to figure out,
everything changes,
we all make mistakes of our own,
at our own expense
We try to get by
and forgive and forget
but she tries to deny
all the places she's been,
so she says
If it's too much to ask
just to try then just let me go
cover the tracks and
we'll both pretend we didn't know
who we were.
This lesson in love
had a teacher with no degree,
how did I fail
if I handed in everything,
everything you asked...
So you run away from here,
but you can't hide
from everything you said.
Screaming in silence
and running in darkness,
Breathing in violence
what happened to happiness
It fades away.
All the nights at the movies,
Ignoring the big screen
What'd you mean
when you told me forever
until you found him?
There's a battle inside
Where all sides are falling
What matters is trying
and walking away alive,
To start again
Telling the truth
Every once in a while,
Is going the distance
but shorting a mile,
you always do...
So you run away from here,
but you can't hide
from everything you said.
Run away
it's all just the same from here
You only hear
what you think you wanna hear.
