It took you quite a while to see
Just exactly
What you did to me
You could not open up your eyes
Cuz for years
You'd been blinded
By your own lies
And I ain't never
Felt this way before
So alone, so alone
And wonderin what for
Weren't you the one that up and left
Though I did you wrong
Didn't you tell me I'm the best
I know I might not be perfect
I made mistakes
But who doesn't
And I don't deserve it
Love, love, love
I don't believe it
If you ask me again
I could leave it
It's a lie
That someone once started
To tell the innocent
And the brokenhearted
So why even try
A four letter word
So venomous, a curse
Of all untruths, the worst
Oh why, oh why
What happened
Once we promised forever
Who did what to who first
And now we're not together
It never depended on whether
I did you right or did you wrong
Or on that lie, that curse
It depended on how
Much you could control me
So when I said I had enough
You left me here
Broken, hopeless, and livin solely
On emptiness and ackwardness
So.... love, love, love
Could you have at least once
Not faked it
Meant what you said,
Kept a promise,
Never to break it
For a while,
I could barely take it
But now... love, love, love
Matters not
And... neither do you
Love, love, love
I don't believe it
If you ask me again
I could leave it
It's a lie
That someone once started
To tell the innocent
And the brokenhearted
So why even try
A four letter word
So venomous, a curse
Of all untruths, the worst
Oh why, oh why
I think maybe of all the words
You told me
Nothing mattered less
Than that curse of a word
And no moment mattered less
Than when you'd hold me
So hold on to something else
And remember
Every time you're lonely yourself
That he ain't half of what I am
And he can't love you like I can
Or like I could have
How I always meant to and tried to
And if you'd have let me
How I would have
So... love, love, love
Love, love, love
I don't believe it
If you ask me again
I could leave it
It's a lie
That someone once started
To tell the innocent
And the brokenhearted
So why even try
A four letter word
So venomous, a curse
Of all untruths, the worst
Oh why, oh why
Oh why, oh why, oh why
Oh why, oh why, oh why
Why do I ever try
Why did I believe your lies
Oh tell me.... why
Broken Angel
You're too far away
You're too much for me to take
You torture me
You take away
Any peace I prayed to save
Every time I hear your voice
Or I even hear your name...
I go insane
I feel the same
Creeping feelings of regret
And I forget to hold my head high
I begin to bear the blame
I give into the temptation
That contemplation has erased
Confusion, constant oblation
For anything more than this serious situation
That I wish I did not have to face
You were once
The angel of my dreams
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
We were walking wearily
Into a snare we could not see
We almost let ourselves
Be tied together for life
And that's not right
Because the truth about me
Is I was never anything
That you really wanted
With your halo burning bright
Really an illusion
If you say so, I just might
End all of my confusion
By cursing you by name
By bursting out of all my seams, all the same
You were once
The angel of my dreams
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
You really were everything
I ever wanted
You were my all, my serenity
But now right in front of me
Is the realization
That there is no meant to be
There is no pre-planned one to set you free
And I rushed and put off all chance of patience
My life, to my disappointment
Is a life without you
Nothing more or less will ever do
I simply cannot avoid it
I cannot spend another day wasting
Waiting for a rescue, your invitation
You were once
The angel of my dreams
But no my nightmare become flesh
I forgot to let myself see
What you really did to me
We're broken in different ways
I'm broken down
Beaten, defeated, denied, your utmost regret
Looking all around
For any sense of salvation
I wish you could find the same
Because in your brain
You seem to think that it's ok
To leave someone hurting in such a way
Breaking hearts, tearing apart
All inclination, all hope, all absence of hesitation
To move past sentimental sensation
Broken angel, maybe of my own creation
My darkest creation
Bonus Material
I Can’t Tell if I’m Sorry
I woke up in the arms
Of someone else today
I haven't heard from you in so long
I felt so alone
Maybe if I could remember last night
I might know her name
I'm not sure if you care anymore
And I feel so broken
I always wonder what you're up to
Where you are
The forever we talked about
Has gotten shorter
Everything has changed so fast, so far
All that we thought we had
Is out of order
Is it gonna be me
Is it gonna be you
Who is it you're livin for
What's it gonna be
What ya gonna do
I don't know if I like it anymore
And I can't tell
If I'm sorry
One of these days
One day soon
I'm gonna leave
I'll forget about you
Everything we have
I always have to guess
I feel like I'm somebody hired
To clean up all your mess
Maybe we went too far
Maybe we rushed so fast
That all the excitement caused
A fire still burning in the past
But that flame has burned out here
Put out by the drops of so many tears
Is it gonna be me
Is it gonna be you
Who is it you're livin for
What's it gonna be
What ya gonna do
I don't know if I like it anymore
And I can't tell
If I'm sorry
If it's gonna be us
And not somethin else
You need to see
It's you, not me
And you're only livin for yourself
I feel the call of an open road
At least I know it's there
And not doin somethin only God knows
Is it gonna be me
Is it gonna be you
Who is it you're livin for
What's it gonna be
What ya gonna do
I don't know if I like it anymore
And I can't tell
If I'm sorry
I can't say a whole lot now
But sorry ain't much
Of what I'm about
Is it gonna be me
Is it gonna be you
Who is it you're livin for
What's it gonna be
What ya gonna do
I don't know if I like it anymore
And I can't tell
If I'm sorry
Is it gonna be me
Is it gonna be you
Who is it you're livin for
What's it gonna be
What ya gonna do
I don't know if I like it anymore
And I can't tell
If I'm sorry
Do I have to say I'm sorry
That, I Will Do
Others came around
And others left me alone
Made me feel incomplete
Scared and on my own
Never to know
Just what to do
Or how to even breathe
But every second I think of you
I know there's
Nothing more I could need
If I ever fail to be
Everything you see in me
I apologize right now
That's not what I want
But all that I need
Is everything in you
And no matter what you ask
That, Baby...
That, I will do
Maybe one person in ten
Finds the love they hope exists
So out of twenty,
We both found
What we can't resist
Everything you do
Makes me fall
So much more in love with you
You're what I thought I'd never have
What I thought I'd never get
Worth every mistake
Worth every kiss
That I had to make
To learn how to be
What I stopped believing in
To find everything
Perfect for me
If I ever fail to be
Everything you see in me
I apologize right now
That's not what I want
But all that I need
Is everything in you
And no matter what you ask
That, Baby...
That, I will do
I will do
Anything for you
I will give my all
I will...
I will stop fearing the fall
If I ever fail to be
Everything you see in me
I apologize right now
That's not what I want
But all that I need
Is everything in you
And no matter what you ask
That, Baby...
That, I will do
You've made me feel
Something too unreal to be real
I don't want to stop
I don't want to sleep
Because dreaming of you
Could never be half
Always staying way too far
From what you really mean to me
You're more than my dreams
You're more than
Love could truly be
Love made us meet
But it couldn't contain what you are
So much more than love had in store
So much more than I thought
Leaving me always wanting more
Leaving me always hoping not
To ever let you down
To ever fall short
Of everything you want
Of everything you
Spent your life fighting for
If I ever fail to be
Everything you see in me
I apologize right now
That's not what I want
But all that I need
Is everything in you
And no matter what you ask
That, Baby...
That, I will do
If I ever fail to be
Everything you see in me
I apologize right now
That's not what I want
But all that I need
Is everything in you
And no matter what you ask
That, Baby...
That, I will do
I will do it all
Don't be afraid to ask
Or to let it all in
If I couldn't have you
I would die
Just to come back
More perfect again
