|
One day your face will fade |
|
And your heart will see new things |
|
Some day there'll be no parade |
|
And you'll see what life can bring |
|
You made me wait for you |
|
While your brilliant mind was seething |
|
I guess you didn't know that you were |
|
The only thing that kept me breathing |
|
I said the things I said |
|
Not because I meant to harm you |
|
Now you know that I'm nearly dead |
|
I'll just bet that it kind of warms you |
|
You left me out on the edge of the world |
|
You played your cards and your power as the girl |
|
You watched with pride as your flag unfurled |
|
And you watched me fall from the edge of the world |
|
Revenge is so sweet they say |
|
But they don't tell you that it eats you |
|
Your crowd is gathered round today |
|
But some day they're the ones who'll beat you |
|
I know that I'm wrong about |
|
What came out of me last time we talked |
|
But do you have to shout it out |
|
That you think that I would really walk |
|
You left me out on the edge of the world |
|
You played your cards and your power as the girl |
|
You watched with pride as your flag unfurled |
|
And you watched me fall from the edge of the world |
|
You said I could never be too intense |
|
It only proved that I really loved you |
|
You said that it all made sense |
|
That I would put no one above you |
|
And now with just one slip on my part |
|
You've used that to damn me |
|
If you felt the desperation in my heart |
|
Then maybe you wouldn't slam me |
|
You left me out on the edge of the world |
|
You played your cards and your power as the girl |
|
You watched with pride as your flag unfurled |
|
And you watched me fall from the edge of the world |
|
I pray you never lose your face |
|
I hope it stays brand new |
|
'Cause in this world it's the place |
|
Where everybody seems to love you |
|
And where I live it doesn't mean a thing |
|
I'll be there in forever |
|
If you ever hear my heart sing |
|
You'll know we're together |
