she hopes that you would see
what differs her from you
separated by each day
pretending something far away
will she ever know just how close she is
from breaking down the walls you build
but you have to say you don't believe in whichever face
that she brings
to make you feel at ease
all the late night reruns of your life, will stop
when you know
when you know she'll never stay
it set you back a million days
you lived your life head on
to beat every clock every day
never caught your time
deserted orphan left in vain
now it's all too late
couldn't see quite how
too busy then
busy just staying alive
but you have to say you don't believe in whichever face
that she brings
to make you feel at ease
all the late night reruns of your life, will stop
when you know
when you know she'll never stay
it set you back a million days
to make you feel at ease
