I'm the setting sun behind the trees
The saddest on you've seen
I've been burning holes and breaking dreams
And I regret it
I'm fixing things I've broken
It's not as easy as it used to be
I'm throwing temper tantrums
I used to settle, but now I make a scene
You can't believe

I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade, and watch you change
Into someone I can't face
I can't replace, I can't replace you

You're the swirling wind above the sea
The maddest storm they've seen
Now you're breaking waves and smashing dreams
And you can't help it.
You're drowning streets and stranding
A million people, you're starting out with me
You're crashing down from anger
You've stopped and settled
And now you're sound asleep
And so serene

I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade, and watch you change
Into someone I can't face.
I can't replace, I can't replace you

And when the sun is down
And when the skies are calm you'll see
Calm we'll be
We'll wait for the cycle （we'll wait for the cycle）
We'll repeat our same mistakes （same mistakes）
The same mistakes we've always made

I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade, and watch you change
Into someone I can't face
I can't replace, I can't replace you

I said I'd never walk away
But I'm not able to stay
I said I'd never leave this place
But I can't stay here
To watch you fade, and watch you change
Into someone I can't face
I can't replace, I can't replace you

I said I'd never walk away
