LYRICS:
You said it once before, you don't do those things you used to anymore.
You say in doubt, we're fading out, forgetting who we used to be.
Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.
You take it with a smile; it's so easy when you're always in denial
Just in time but out of line I can't make all the same mistakes you want me to.
Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.
You're giving up you know it's not what you need.
And it's true what you're going through.
Try so hard not to listen to everything I never say.
Cause I will bring you down,
I don't want to miss, I don't think you can handle this.
You've lost what you can't find; it's never what you had in mind.
I'm getting over getting used to,
And after all that I put you through now I see I'm not the only one.
I never thought it'd ever come to,
This in fact was never what you wanted from me or how you meant it to be.
------
..And that's the end! That took me a while actually, but it's a great song.
Any comments, suggestions, or corrections are always welcome, just email me.
