[00:08.51]I’ve been losing patience with myself
[00:11.31]And the lies the mirror fails to hide and tell
[00:14.33]My beating heart, my splitting cells are betraying me
[00:19.04]Been turning my virtues into vices
[00:21.12]Like water into wine
[00:24.10]I’d rather be genuine and a cynic
[00:26.37]Than a hypocrite living a lie
[00:28.94]What is time in the eyes of a dying man?
[00:32.91]When I leave, I plead not heed a second chance
[01:03.05]Heard your voice through the payphone line
[01:04.00]And I am drunk with lust, my whiskey tongue-tied
[01:07.98]Words, slurred, I apologize
[01:10.09]But yours is the first name that came to mind
[01:14.64]My wounded breath and bloodshot eyes
[01:19.06]Wanting only to love and to be loved by you
[01:26.34]Wow Wow Wow Wow
[01:34.07]I’ve been swearing at the stars, I’ve been cursing at my luck
[01:38.05]Like the wolves curse at the moon for the lack of a sun
[01:42.40]And fate cursed my father with a daughter for a son
[01:49.53]Wow Wow Wow Wow Wow Wow
[02:03.40]If it happened to me it can happen to anyone
[02:15.20]Oh how I miss my brother
[02:17.26]Most of all come time summer
[02:19.47]Leaves will fall and change their color
[02:21.93]I may never know another one like you
[02:29.95]Oh how I miss my sister
[02:32.21]Most of all, come time winter
[02:34.47]Knew her best when times were simpler
[02:37.27]Still the same, now but different
[02:44.86]In life and love, she spared no mercy
[02:49.81]Deserving not was I nor worthy
[03:02.01]Father please forgive me I have forsaken your family’s name
[03:07.47]I will burden blame and hang my head for shame
[03:19.52]Raise your glass high, I propose a toast,
[03:23.95]To the lives and love we let go
[03:28.52]Wiser now in years than I am old
[03:32.08]My love, my life, I let them go
[03:34.05]We will all die alone
[03:37.96]Sit on my hands to free them from fetter
[03:40.49]Pillow to chest, and let feelings fester
[03:42.13]You were the one always, forever
[03:44.69](Wanting only to love and to be loved by you)
[03:47.27]You were the one always, forever
[03:49.06](Wanting only to love and to be loved by you)
[03:52.38]You were the one always, forever
[03:54.58](I may never know another one like you)
[03:57.12]Sit on my hands to free them from fetter
[03:58.81]Pillow to chest, and let feelings fester
[04:03.97]You were the one always forever
