I've been practicing all day Now the words I meant to say are gone I promised that I wouldn't cry Told myself I had to try and hold on The truth, I lied I hate myself inside And why I played the game and paid the price I never look back I never cry never try to wonder why I'll be on my own And never doubt, never shout or wonder how I'll never be lonely until This time, this time, this time This time I will I've been wide awake all night There's no sign of sleep inside my mind The headlight shadows scan my wall I convince myself you'll call in time The truth, I lied The girl in me has died And why I played the game and paid the price I never look back... This time I will be yours completely This time I'll make sure you don't hate me This time I know, this time I can and this time I will I never look back... I've been practicing all day Now the words I meant to say are gone.
