You called me out
You stayed inside
One you love
Is where you hide
A facade. It was all pretense. Did your walls ever come down? Did you ever let me in?
Shot me down as I flew by
Crash and burn
I think sometimes you forget where the heart is
You pushed me away. Again.
You're complicated. Like an art piece. Difficult to understand. To decipher. To find the true meaning behind the swirl of gray and black. But won't you let me try?
Answer no to these questions
Let her go, learn a lesson
It's not me, you're not listening
Now can't you see something's missing?
Am I asking for too much? And are you expecting too much? Is it better if...
We just learned to let go?
You forget where the heart is
Cry on my shoulder if you want...but you never did. Was I too young and foolish to have said that?
Won't you?
I'll take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay
Don't push me away. I know I can't make everything ok. But it doesn't mean that everything has to be bad. You still have me. I know you're lost. In a way, so am I...but...I'll try to help you find your way.
Won't you trust me?
Waking up from this nightmare
How's your life, what's it like there?
Is it all what you want it to be?
Does it hurt when you think about me?
Didn't you tell me once...we would always know when either one of us was down? I didn't understand it then...but now I do. Look at me. I'm hurting...because you're hurting too.
And how broken my heart is
You said he left you. Then she left too. They all left. But I'm still here...
So now you're leaving too?
I'll take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay
You know I'm your punching bag. Hit me. Kick me. Let it all out. Let me feel your pain. I'd rather you beat me up...than...
It's okay to be angry and never let go
It only gets harder the more that you know
The scars will always be there. To remind you. To remind me. I was I was there to bear part of the cuts and bruises...did you hold that against me? I thought....
When you get lonely if no one's around
You know that I'll catch you when you're falling down
Don't...don't do it again. Somehow, you managed to wear down my defenses...why won't you let me bring down yours? Let me wipe away your tears...let me teach you how to smile again.
We came together but you left alone
And I know how it feels to walk out on your own
Don't. Walk. Away. But you did. Again. And now all I see...are memories. Of a distant past. Blurry images, hollow laughs, fake smiles...
Broken promises.
Maybe someday I will see you again
And you'll look me in my eyes and call me your friend
Maybe it's too late now...are we...too far gone? Has it been too long? Did...he destroy us?
I'll take you away from that empty apartment
You stay and forget where the heart is
Someday if ever you love me you'd say its okay
It's okay
It's okay
Will we ever be okay?
"An empty apartment. Just like our empty hearts."
