Today i am your chariot horse |
|
Tomorrow i'm your albatross |
|
Suspended by the finest thread |
|
No one could ever see |
|
And when there's breathing in your ear |
|
You put your faith in all you hear |
|
But just how deep those feelings go |
|
I have no way to know |
|
I'll never know |
|
And if i was blind |
|
Would you still be my eyes |
|
Or hide everything you see |
|
Pretending to care about me |
|
When all the time |
|
You're just wishing i'd fade away |
|
You just can't bring yourself to |
|
Say out loud the reasons why |
|
You won't admit you realize |
|
The promise you've been living by |
|
Is just an empty shell |
|
You'll come to bear it like a cross |
|
And then start to tear it like frayed gauze |
|
Though i'm ashamed to be afraid |
|
I just can't help myself |
|
Can't help myself |
|
And if i was blind |
|
Would you still be my eyes |
|
Or hide everything you see |
|
Pretending to care about me |
|
When all the time |
|
You're just wishing i'd fade away |
|
You can't bring yourself to care about me |
|
Please don't let me down |
|
Why don't you care, why don't you care about me? |
|
Cause i know all the time you're just wishing i'd fade away |
|
You can't bring yourself to say |
