You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it Set fire to my forest
And you let it burn She sang off key in my chorus Cause it wasn't yours
I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose-colored glasses all distorted Set fire to my purpose
And I let it burn You got off on the hurting When it wasn't yours
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed illusion to find me
Spencer was killing me softly
I needed to have you to love me To love, love you
To love, love, to love, yeah I needed to lose you to love me To love, love, to love, love, to love, yeah I needed to lose you to love me
I gave my all and they all know it Then you tore me down when I went showin' And took mine to replace the rush
And I get quite cheesy, made me think I deserved it And I think I'm feeling, hey, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I need an illusion to find me
This dancing was killing me sharply I needed to hate you to love me To love, love, yeah To love, love, yeah To love, yeah I needed to lose you to love me
love.
I needed to lose you to love me You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn, sang off key in my chorus
To love, yeah
To love, yeah I need an illusion to love me, yeah
Love, love, love, love, love, love
And now the chapter is closing down, love, love
To love, love, to love And now it's goodbye
Goodbye for us
