I did not mean to fail you now Got caught up in this quest for perfection I won't fade into life's big background While you get what I can't have Please lay down and let me pa** I'm so afraid that this won't last And I can't go on unnoticed I reacted wrong to your good news I'm sorry, but you're the one who failed me Please lay down and let me pa** I'm so afraid that this won't last And I can't go on unnoticed Close your eyes and don't look back and I will try to forgive Take your hand and place it on me Don't you feel how hollow and empty I am? I need this to fill me up You took that Don't take that away I did not mean to fail you now But you got exactly what I want and cannot have So please lay down And let me pa** I'm so afraid that this won't last And I'll go on unnoticed I did not mean to fail you now
