What to say...I’m dying today. Would you believe me...Whatever I say.
I cut and run...let’s have our fun. Time will tell...when we are dumb.
Would you go with me...too make believe. We can have...anything we need.
Still I see...You so far from me. What we had...will it not be...now.
Wait, We’re too late, Now our Fate, What I’ll make.
No Way, Pretending, Our sign, Decending
I wanted you...but not to prove. A kind of warmth...For me and you.
What’s left to say...You’re not with me. Our brightest light...In cold decay.
And what could be...Is just for dreams. It’s got no rhyme...Got NO meaning.
A fallen stance...No lost romance. Still confused...Not half a chance.
What’s there to see...Reflects on me. Generalities...Your banality.
Still I want..Just one more chance. I Go for broke...Till it all crashes, down.
Wait, We’re too late, Now our Fate, What I’ll make.
No Way, Pretending, Our sign, Decending
Gonna take your burning reset..Gotta make my mind till it’s clear.
I’ll awake this waiting feeling...Close the door? No, now a reject.
And the best laid plans can’t make a stand...When it falls out unto our hands.
Better hold your tongue from baiting...Less it hold you back from making.
This time I say I’m sincere...And at last I’ll say it real clear.
I’ll awake this world of feeling...Don’t you know that love is teasing...me.
Wait, We’re too late, Now our Fate, What I’ll make.
No Way, Pretending, Our sign, Decending
Once you take it...Why you break it.
I can’t leave yet...No one’s seeing.
My misgiving...Or transending.
Please don’t fake now...I can’t take it...all.
