…………………………..

Look at what you have done

Clouded the morning sun

I would have shined for you

But now that i have learned the truth

I wont let you break me down

I will take what i still have and get out

When you’re falling deep asleep

I’ll be there haunting in your dreams

You should know when you left me alone

The silence of sound

Hey..

I have nothing left to say

You have taken it all away

For all the scars and all the pain

I’m never coming back now

Hey..

We have nothing left to do

I gave all of my heart to you

Perhaps i fell in love too soon

Or maybe you brought us down

………………………..

Tears have fallen like the rain

And lighting struck my soul

But i have found my strength again

And i wont take it anymore

Hey..

Everyday i am reminded of

What we could have been

Every moment comes back to me

Each time i let you in

There is a fire growing inside me and

It’s headed your way

All of this madness could have been

Ended if you had just stayed

Hey..

I have nothing left to say

You have taken it all away

For all the scars and all the pain

I’m never coming back now

Hey..

We have nothing left to do

I gave all of my heart to you

Perhaps i fell in love too soon

Or maybe you brought us down

Hey..

I have nothing left to say

You have taken it all away

For all the scars and all the pain

I’m never coming back now

…………………………..

But now that I have learned the truth

I won't let you break me down

I will take what I still have and get out

When you are falling deep asleep

I will be there haunting in your dreams

You should know when you left me alone

The silence of sound

Hey...

For all the scars and all the pain

I am never coming back now

Hey...

We have nothing left to do

I gave all of my heart to you

Perhaps I fell in love too soon

Or maybe you brought us down

...

Tears have fallen like the rain

And lightning struck my soul

But I have found my strength again

And I won't take it anymore

Hey...

Every day I am reminded of

What we could have been

Every moment comes back to me

Each time I let you in

There is a fire growing inside me and

It is headed your way

All of this madness could have been

Ended if you had just stayed

Hey...

I have nothing left to say

You have taken it all away

For all the scars and all the pain

I am never coming back now

Hey...

We have nothing left to do

I gave all of my heart to you

Perhaps I fell in love too soon

Or maybe you brought us down

Hey...

I have nothing left to say

You have taken it all away

For all the scars and all the pain

I am never coming back now
