i know you're shaking my hand like it is the first time

you're either with us or you can keep it to yourself

if we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday

be there in five! (hyperbolically)

i think i wanna stay in the car, i don't want anybody seeing me cry now

if you're really sorry, happy second chance, i think i could forgive, this time you won't leave me sinking

so you give up every chance you get

this time we're not giving up

you got it, you got it, some kind of magic, hypnotic, hypnotic, you're leaving me breathless, i hate this, i hate this, you're not the one i believe in and god as my witness

oh, oh

and i'll wave goodbye watching you shine bright

you wanna make a difference, get out and go begin it

and it takes acquired minds to taste, to taste, to taste this wine

lucky for me, i run on spite and sweet revenge it's my dependence on the friction that really hinders my progression

i hate to admit getting better is boring

there's still a thread that runs from your body to mine

you never said

you were the greatest thing, and now you're just a memory to let go of

oh, glory

and never will i have to answer again to anyone

can't say i'm sad to see you go 'cause i'm not

oh, it's such a long and awful lonely fall down from this pedestal that you keep putting me on, what if i fall on my face? what if i make a mistake? if it's okay a little grace would be appreciated

and i've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance

well, if it's not real you can't hold it in your hand, you can't feel it with your heart, and i won't believe it. but if it's true you can see it with your eyes, oh, even in the dark, and that's where i want to be, yeah

what if i told ‘em now that i'm older there isn't a moment that i'd wanna change? now i crave, crave to do it again

i settled down a twisted up frown disguised as a smile, well, you would have never known

that i've fallen down and i can't do this alone

oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

now we could follow you back home, but we won't

but god, does it feel so good 'cause i got him where i want him now

i need something to sing about

tonight, i'll lie awake

now i'm told that this is life and pain is just a simple compromise, so we can get what we want out of it

it's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and i can't get out so i'll just make the best of everything i'll never have

'cause i've seen love die

i think i'm a little bit caught in the middle

i'm just a girl and you're not as alone as you feel

and all the best lies they are told with fingers tied, so cross them tight

(i can't give you, i can't give you that)

i never wanted to say this, you never wanted to stay

just like a stray animal, i keep feeding scraps, i give it my energy and it keeps on coming back

you escape like a runaway train off the tracks and down again

i am outside and i've been waiting for the sun

i'm just a little bit caught in the middle, i try to keep going, but it's not that simple

i could follow you to the beginning just to relive the start

it's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and i can't get out so i'll just make the best of everything i'll never have

i was a few cheap shots away from the end of me

cause i fear i might break

well, there's a million other girls who do it just like you

didn't wanna show up to the party empty-handed but i ran out of time
