I think it’s time for a change
Cause things feel out of touch
And I watch you walk away, again

Well this feels like too much (Can you take it away?)
And things won’t go my way
Now I’ll have to fade away, my friend

So pass slowly
And carry me down
And render me lonely
When you’re not around

I need to shake off this pain
But courage takes too much
So I have to walk away, again

Oh God I miss your touch (Can you take it away?)
The way that you keep me safe
I won’t let you fade away, my friend

So pass slowly
And carry me down
Remember me only
When you’re not around

Oh yea, can’t you stay awhile longer?
Oh yea, won’t you stay?
God please stay

And pass slowly (It’s time for a change)
And whittle me down (Cause things feel out of touch)
And render me lonely (I’ll watch you walk away, again)
When you’re not around

So pass slowly (This feels like too much)
And let me down easy (And things won’t go my way)
Render me lonely (I’ll have to fade away, my friend)
When you’re not around

Now I’ll take the blame so forget my name
Just close the blinds so I can calm down
I’m naked and shamed a moth to the flame
Just take my hand so we can both drown

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

The same sweet game your halo is a flame
Feel my heart race and breathe a sad sigh
Let me wash away and let go of the pain
Just look away and turn a blind eye

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

So hold me down
If I feed I’m stronger
I don’t feel no longer

So hold me down
If I feed I’m stronger
I don’t feel no longer

So hold me down
If I feed I’m stronger
I don’t feel no longer

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

I’ll never believe in you again
I’ll never forgive those things you said
My only relief is gone and dead
I’ll never forsake myself again.

It’s all too revealing your words are deceiving
I can’t let you get in my way
I sense all your actions are meant as distractions
You must know I won’t play your game

Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break, get out of my head
No shame, you’re passing all the blame
And nothing’s gonna change, get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while, stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise..

I’m sick of pretending the thoughts are unending
I can’t let you get in my way (there’s no way home)
I’m no longer bending my mind set is mending
And now I have something to say (deny me)

Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break get out of my head
No shame, you’re passing all the blame
And something’s gonna change get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise..

Fake, you’re more than I can take
And something’s gonna break get out of my head
Shame, you’re passing all the blame
And nothing’s gonna change get out of my head

You made me realize that it’s all a lie
And it comes as no surprise
Stay for a while stay ‘cause you make me smile
I see no compromise..

Stay for a while stay ‘cause you make me smile
I see no compromise stay for a while
Stay ‘cause you make me smile
There’s no compromise

I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
And I keep your photograph, I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Because I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
You’ve gone away, you don’t feel me here anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Because I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
Because I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

Because I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
You’ve gone away, you don’t feel me here anymore

I feel so unsure,
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor.
As the music dies…
Something in your eyes,
Calls to mind a silver screen,
And all those sad goodbyes

Chorus
I’m never gonna dance again,
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though its easy to pretend,
I know you’re not a fool

I should have no better than to cheat a friend,
And waste the chance that Id been given.
So I’m never gonna dance again,
The way I danced with you
Chorus

Time can never mend,
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind,
If your answers kind…
There’s no comfort in the truth,
Pain is all you’ll find

Repeat chorus

What am I without your love?

Tonight the music seems so loud,
I wish that we could lose the crowd.
Maybe its better this way,
Wed hurt each other with the things we want to say.

We could have been so good together,
We could have made this last forever…
But now, who’s gonna dance with me?
Please stay
(alternatively):
And now its never gonna be
That way…

Repeat chorus

Now that you’re gone…
Now that you’re gone…
Now that you’re gone…
Was what I did so wrong?
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?

Throw your dollar bills and leave your thrills all here with me
And speak but don’t pretend I won’t defend you anymore you see
It aches in every bone, I’ll die alone, but not for you
My eyes don’t need to see that ugly thing, I know it’s me you fear
If you want me hold me back

Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, “You’ll be the death of me”

I don’t need a friend, I need to mend so far away
So come sit by the fire and play a while, but you can’t stay too long
It aches in every bone, I’ll die alone, but not for pleasure
I see my heart explode, it’s been eroded by the weather here
If you want me hold me back

Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, “You’ll be the death of me”
Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, “You’ll be the death of me”

Hold your eyes closed, take me in
Hold your eyes closed, take me in

Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, “You’ll be the death of me”
Frail, the skin is dry and pale, the pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high, just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, “You’ll be the death of me”
