lyrics

I’m usually so careful. I usually think twice. (So perfect.)
I plan it out so perfect, so I don’t look out of line.
But I guess this got the best of me. It appears I just gave up. (Will it ever be enough?)
I bailed on it all on impulse. As if it wasn’t enough
that I wasted two years just so you wouldn’t know at all.

I’ll be sure to speak very careful and slow.
Because these words will remain forever, as I’ve said before.
A thousand times before
I know I’ve ruined everything to which I’ve given my life.
Will you help me to stoop and build them up, if I’m still worth your time?
Because we both know
I might not escape the next one
I might not make it home.
I might not escape the next one.
I might face the end alone.

You should know I was impressed. You had every right to hate me. I made damn sure.
What’s more, I’d quite invited it. I’d not been honest lately.
But of all the possibilities, you had ruled out the worst. Then took it back again.
Only just to take it back again, and now we’ll never speak a word.
I may not get what I want. But I’ll get what I deserve.

I’ll be sure to speak very careful and slow.
Because these words will remain forever, as I’ve said before.
A thousand times before
I know I’ve ruined everything to which I’ve given my life.
Will you help me to stoop and build them up, if I’m still worth your time?
Because we both know
I might not escape the next one
I might not make it home.
I might not escape the next one.
I might face the end alone.

Could you possibly imagine what that would mean?
With that thought, the terror grows in me.
I see. But could I believe?
I finally got this right.

If I could just remember, if I could resurrect this very feeling
at any time I want, if I could just remember you.
Because I fear I’ll soon forget this, and I’ll mumble(shout out/whisper) something foolish
Because I take love for granted. Because that’s just what I do. (But I won’t do that with you.)
