This won't be the talk,
Of tomorrow,
Your admissions trail,
Of the tip of your tongue,
I still don't,
Believe the falling,
Synonymic pleas,
So please,
Leave,
I'm running out of sympathy,
I never said I'd take this,
I never said I'd take this,
Lying down,
You say,
But I don't want,
To hear this on the bluff,
I just don't want to hear,
To hear you conjecture,
Your apathetic lecture,
I never said I'd take this,
Lying down.
It hurts to see,
It so cold,
And I'm trying to,
Get through this,
I can't believe,
I can't conceive,
Just lie to me,
So please,
Leave,
The truth and endless litanies,
I just can't take this,
I just can't take life,
Lying down,
You say,
"Love is love,
Heroes always win the fight",
I just need to hear,
I can't take this daybreak,
This endless hateful earthquake,
Lying down.
The only thing,
I regret,
Is that I,
I never let you hold me back,
So please,
Leave,
The truth and endless litanies,
I just can't take this,
I just can't take life,
Lying down,
I stay dead,
Of emotion inside,
For this laborious life,
I need to keep you in mind,
As something larger than life,
The only thing,
I regret,
Is that I,
I never let you hold me back,
So please,
Leave,
The truth and endless litanies,
I just can't take this,
I just can't take life,
Lying down.
