The Bleeding Fool.
I wish I knew what you had in mind when you say you love me. I thought I could undermine your patience and make you give in to the ones that loved you, but I was wrong. Oh so very wrong. By throwing myself into the middle of your game I hurt myself more than you ever could, more than I ever thought possible. Waiting so long for someone like you seems like such a waste of time, but I’m so close I can feel it. So far away I can’t touch you. And it seems so silly to give up precious time for something that’ll never happen but I can’t help but wonder what 30 years will do.
[Chorus]
And these lyrics you’ll probably never understand, because you’ll never know they’re to you. I will never tell you how I really feel, and you will never care. We will go on playing your games and I will go on smiling like the bleeding fool I am. A pity I can’t tell you, a shame you can’t read the signs, this is who we were meant to be. This is what we were meant to play. A clash of music and emotions, sin and passion, the notes and the words. We go together, but we fall apart.
And I know no matter how many times I say I’ve given up, I’ll just keep coming back for more. I can’t seem to get enough of you, I can’t seem to hold on long enough for my liking. And despite everything I hate about you, I love you more than you could know. I want to smash your face in, all the while kissing away every bruise upon your fragile heart. You were never meant to be strong. You were meant to push people around, make them feel loved, then laugh at their expense.
[Chorus]
I’ll tell you now that you’ll never find the meaning of life, and you’ll never find the solace that you seek from the past that has long gone. And if you keep living the way you have decided to, you will never find comfort in what the future has to bring. And these regrets that you so uselessly hold on to will never bring you love nor happiness. And what you say is something you have to confront before you go, is something that holds you back, when you should find joy in moving on.
[Chorus]
Ever so gently we fall apart.
