I swallow hard because I know

That what comes next will hurt

You more than me

I bite my lip to try to stop it from shaking

The teeth have broken the skin

And the blood tastes cold to me

After all those nights you kept me warm

I'd hold my breath just to hear you sleep

I must admit I saw it coming

The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe

I'd run away if I could help it

But I can't remember to forget your face

You can say my heart has changed

But it's my will you've beaten down

I'd kiss you now but I fear my caustic tongue would only

Serve to salt your wounds

I must admit I saw it coming

The air between us had gotten harder yet to breathe

I'd run away if I could help it

But I can't remember to forget your face

You are as beautiful as ever

Yet I'm starting to resent your smile

Because it's killing me to say this

But I'm dying inside to leave

It's a place we've never been

It's a waste to keep it in

It's a place we've never been

It's a waste to keep it in

It's a place we've never been

It's a waste to keep it in

It's a place we've never been

It's a waste to keep it in

It means little to you

It's a place we've never been

But the world to me

It's a waste to keep it in

It means little to you

It's a place we've never been

But the world to me

But the world to me
