lyrics

I am mad
Of rehearsing the facts
That have happened in this story
But it now will come to an end

The past we've had and the life's we've led
Stayed apart like a bird from the ocean
Now you can tell me where you would have been
Without this
Without me

Still lying about your concern
Still struggling with everything
I'm glad and proud of being there for you
So you would not be a mess of insecurity
A mess of disbelief

I'm glad and proud of being there for you
So you would not be
A mess of uncertainty
A mess of disbelief

Appearances are deceptive
A lie has no legs
This is the proof for me that
Love will make me blind

Once bitten, twice shy
I hope you realize
That this will make me say goodbye

You can leave by tomorrow
If this is all you'll ever face
Is this the confession you made
To my faith and embrace

Goodbye my love, my friend

Now this won't let you relent
Like it did during the time we spent
So just forget it and pray
But please don't forget to embrace the day

I was there for you
You were there for me
But I'll just close my eyes
And make some place for new memories
I'm done and finally alive
So approve this message
Or we both go blind again

The past we've had and the life's we've led
Stayed apart like a bird from the ocean
Once bitten, twice shy
I hope you realize
That this will make me say goodbye
