and I just want to be there with you
visiting the past that replays in my mind
smilin' sweetly at the world as it passed us by
sittin' in each other's arms
knowin' I could live life with a taste of the clouds
gracing me from heaven as I earned God's trust
knowing I could have perfection
that I wasn't condemned
but you've left me falling now
as perfection crashes down
bidding me to trust temptation
as she drowns me in a sea of unspoken hesitations
as she grips my heart and she steals my mind
leaving me no choice but to cut and run
or else try to tread till you bring me down
singing as we sink of making it through
singing as we sink of maybe lovin' me too
singing as we sink when you know it's untrue
and it's not like I know what's going on
you smiled at me once and you melted my heart
frozen from cold glares that had torn it apart
you giggled at me once and you set me free
thinkin' just for once this was meant to be
and it's shame on you for playin' me once
and it's shame on me for playin' the game
thinkin' you could be my own rock star
thinkin' I could breathe when it got too deep
and it's shame on you for playin' me once
and it's shame on me for callin' them all
sayin' "let's make this work"
and "I wanna be played"
and "I wanna be fooled"
"just so long as it's you who thinks I should"
till my heart's sittin' broken
speared on a shard of glass
so now I'm treadin' lightly to
save myself from your past
and the radio plays yet another sweet song
screamin' of misery and what turns me on
is the thought of having you once more in my arms
till you drift away...
