歌曲歌詞
I've been trying for hours
Just to think of what exactly to say
I thought I'd leave you with a letter or fiery speech
Like when an actor makes an exit at the end of a play
And I've been dying for hours
Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know how you faded
And you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons
And what everything meant
Well I could tell you goodbye
Or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
We started out with a bang
And at the top of the world
Now the guns are exhausted
The bullets are blanks
And every thing's blank
If I could only find the words
Then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes
Oh can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
If I could only find the words
Then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes
Oh can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
I've been whispering softly
Trying to build a cry up to a scream
We let the past slip away and put the future on hold
Now the present is nothing but a hollowed out dream
And I've been dying for hours
Trying to fill up all the holes with some sense
I'd like to know why you faded
And you threw it away
I'd like to give you all the reasons
And what everything meant
Well I could tell you goodbye
Or maybe see you around
With just a touch of a sarcastic thanks
But now the rooms are all empty
The candles are dark
The guns are exhausted
And the bullets are blanks and every thing's blank
If I could only find the words
Then I would write it all down
If I could only find a voice I would speak
Oh it's there in my eyes so can't you see me tonight
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
Oh it's there in my eyes
And coming straight from my heart
It's running silent and angry and deep
Oh it's there in my eyes and it's all I can say
C'mon and look at me and read 'em and weep
For all the hours we've been spending along
For all tears raining down
And all those promises we promised to keep
They won't be kept in vogue
For the magic that are bodies had made
For the love that we lost
And all the secrets that we somehow betrayed
