that’s just like him
to wander off in the evergreen park
slowly searching
for any sign of the ones
he used to love
he says he’s got nothing
left to live for
(he says he’s got nothing left)
and this time I think you’ll know

you’re not alone
there’s more to this I know
you can make it out
you will live to tell

she’s just like him
spoiled rotten, confused by
the lies she’s been fed
she’s searching for no
one (but herself)
her eyes turn to green
and she seems to be happy
that she is her
and this time I think you’ll know

you’re not alone
there is more to this I know
you can make it out
you will live to tell

you’re not alone
there is more to this I know
you can make it out

(there is more to this)

we’re not alone
there is more to this I know
you can make it out
you will live to tell

(so tell me)

you’re not alone
there is more to this I know
you can make it out
you will live to tell

you’re not alone
you’re not, you’re not alone . . .

sometimes life seems too quiet
into paralyzing silence
like the moonless dark
meant to make me strong

familiar breath of my old lies
changed the color in my eyes
soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

sorrow lasts through this night
i’ll take this piece of you
and hold for all eternity
for just one second i felt whole
as you flew right through me

left alone with only reflections of the memory
to face the ugly girl
that’s smothering me
sitting closer than my pain
he knew each tear before it came
soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by

and we kiss each other one more time
and sing this lie that’s halfway mine
the sword is slicing through the question
so i won’t be fooled by his angel light

sorrow lasts through this night
i’ll take this piece of you
and hold for all eternity
for just one second i felt whole
as you flew right through me
and up into the stars

joy will come . .

sometimes life seems too quiet
into paralyzing silence
like the moonless dark
meant to make me strong . .

i wanted you to know i love the way you laugh
i wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
i keep your photograph; i know it serves me well
i wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause i’m broken when i’m open
and i don’t feel like i am strong enough
‘cause i’m broken when i’m lonesome
and i don’t feel right when you’re gone away

the worst is over now and we can breathe again
i wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
there’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
i wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘cause i’m broken when i’m open
and i don’t feel like i am strong enough
‘cause i’m broken when i’m lonesome
and i don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘cause i’m broken when i’m open
and i don’t feel like i am strong enough
‘cause i’m broken when i’m lonesome
and i don’t feel right when you’re gone away . .
