| If you could notice me now
|
| Would you see all the envy behind those eyes
|
| They told endless lies
|
| And after all the view’s still black and white
|
| It’s black and white
|
| Is it within where you’d absolve my sins
|
| And measure up the way that I have lived with all my good intentions?
|
| So every now and then (now and then)
|
| I’ll think of why it had to end
|
| It came and went
|
| Like a match that burnt at both ends
|
| Save your breath
|
| We only get so many chances
|
| And after all, we’ve been through
|
| I always knew we would end with you
|
| And I, what good am I?
|
| And I’ve known this all my life (all my life)
|
| It’s like you say
|
| 'there's no easy way to escape'
|
| Rest assured I’m self-medicated out the front door
|
| Is it within where you’d absolve my sins
|
| And measure up the way that I have lived with all my good intentions?
|
| So every now and then (now and then)
|
| I’ll think of why it had to end
|
| It came and went
|
| Like a match that burnt at both ends
|
| It burnt at both ends
|
| I’m self-medicating
|
| Save your breath
|
| We only get so many chances
|
| And after we’ve been through
|
| I always knew it would end with you
|
| Save your breath
|
| We only get so many chances
|
