Had a lot to say
Caught up in yesterday
And you try to play it straight
While she fades
Should have let her heart come out of the cage
Why did you throw it all away
So don't you hesitate
Cause you know that time won't make her stay
Maybe if you run then you can catch her now
But careful, when she leaves she doesn't make a sound
Your scars are thick and your head is proud
Do you feel your conscience weigh you down
Keep trying to grab her till your hands go numb
Maybe that was what she wanted all along
With a shaky grip you keep holding on
And she's going, going, going, going
Going, going, going, now she's gone
That's the game she plays
When you try to turn the page
I guess some things never change
They just break
Light yourself on fire, hope she sees the blaze
Your pupils dilate
All you can do is wait
And you pray, everyday
Maybe if you run then you can catch her now
But careful, when she leaves she doesn't make a sound
Your scars are thick and your head is proud
Do you feel your conscience weigh you down
Keep trying to grab her till your hands go numb
Maybe that was what she wanted all along
With a shaky grip you keep holding on
And she's going, going, going, going
Going, going, going, now she's gone
Can't stop
She won't fake it
Don't think
You can take it
Her eyes say nothin' at all
Her cries say nothin' at all
You know
Lies won't save this
Even when
Lies are sacred
And she won't say nothin' at all
She won't even pick up your call
Your breath smells of alcohol
And your heart's getting ready to fall
Had a lot to say
Caught up in yesterday
And you try to play it straight while she fades
Fades
Maybe if you run then you can catch her now
But careful, when she leaves she doesn't make a sound
Your scars are thick and your head is proud
Do you feel your conscience weigh you down
Keep trying to grab her till your hands go numb
Maybe that was what she wanted all along
With a shaky grip you keep holding on
And she's going, going, going, going
Going, going, going, going
Going, going, going, now she's gone
