VERSE
it's stupid and sad
why we had
our castles built upon sand
the mighty craft
of an infidel's hand
we were so in love
with each other's poison
i only had "hope" to
justify my actions
what if we choose to not lie
just try not to lie
maybe...
at least not too much tonight?
would this episode last
a little longer this time
with a much lighter plight?
a calmer night?
unlike a
primetime crime scene on screen
i've always lost all that i've stolen
to another thief with a darker conscience
you
wait for me to miss a beat
i felt the noose tighten a little too late
for me to loosen up
its grip on my neck
as she went out dancing
with other supposed kings
somewhere not so distant from here
while i was asleep
i was dreaming of a different scene
sleeping with a different queen
we are our own dying tale
our own defeat
CHORUS
i remember she said
"go ahead... break my heart"
i said
"how do i do that , hun?"
you got none.
BRIDGE
it could have been...
cuz what if we did...
if only we knew...
did i?
would you?
it could have been
cuz what if we did
if only we knew
did i?
would you?
who would you do?
would this episode last
a little longer this time
with a much lighter plight?
a calmer night?
unlike a
primetime crime scene on screen
CHORUS
i remember she said
"go ahead... break my heart"
i said
