Lyrics
I should have known, but I didn?t wanna see
Slowly my days dimmed, and it pained me to breathe
When you took his hand, and a ring of intention
He gave you his world, tied up with desention
But there?s no love for him, did your heart forget to mention
You can say goodbye, but you will always know
I?m not far away and you can?t let me go
You can say goodbye, and I?ll be on my way
if you slowly fall apart,well I?m not the one to blame.....
When you slide from his bed in the night
Do you wonder where I am - and wipe a tear from your eye
What do you say when he wonders what?s so wrong
You?re pretty smooth with your story
He can?t see what?s going on
Well, suddenly I?m not so envious anymore
You can say goodbye, but you will always know
I?m not far away and you can?t let me go
You can say goodbye, and I?ll be on my way
if you slowly fall apart,well I?m not the one to blame.....
....For the words and the lies of so many others
How they hazed you blind, your head still can?t discover why...
Why you couldn?t hear what your heart had to say......
And when we meet again, some random rendevous
You?ll be pulled in my direction, and you'll fight me nail and tooth
And then you'll know, from the break of our tie
The jaded Demise, the face of your action still bleeds...
When you said goodbye, did you always know
I wouldn?t be far away, and you can?t let me go
You can say goodbye, but every time you hear my name
You slowly fall apart,well I?m not the one to blame
When you?re drowning in your pillow, in the morning - of everyday
