These are the words I want to say:
Darling, I loved you, but it's not the same
You waited far too long to see
And now it's your own fault that we can never be
I didn't ask you for your help
I never begged to see you in my dreams
And I would die before falling to my knees for you
And love, here's your chance to be free from actuality
It's a mistake
It was a chance we'd take
We bend and then we break
This is the line
For ever a day goes by
That we're less than alive
I just have to close my eyes to see
Your brilliant lies that twist and turn inside of me
You're running me through with open arms
But you had your chance and now it's my turn to move on
It's a mistake
It was a chance we'd take
We bent and now we break
This is the line
For ever a day goes by
That we're less than alive
For days and nights I'd lie awake
And feel your hand brush on my face
And there I'd wait, but there you'd stay
Content in all your misplaced faith
There's nothing I want more
Than to tear you from my heart with a fatal blow
Get out of my mind - you've lost your hold
And there's nowhere for us to go but down again
It's a mistake
It was a chance we'd take
We bent and now we break
This is the line
For never a day goes by
That we're more than a lie
It's a mistake
This is a chance I'll take
To save me from your face
This is the line
For ever a day goes by
That we're less than alive
