And so I'm leaving here today No, I'm not sure just where I'm going Burn out and watch it fade away I miss the comfort of no knowing
Like running standing in one place A paper crown made for a child king The truth can slap you in the face Then slip off like a loose wedding ring
When I told, told, told you a lie, lie, lie I just wanted to be where you are And you told, told me if I try, try, try You could help me see in the dark It's getting dark (x4)
And so I'm giving up this fight This mountain I could not stop climbing You are an echo in the night A cloud without a silver lining
Please tell my papa that I tried And tell my darling that I love her But something deep inside me died And follows hovering above her
When I sold, sold, sold you a lie, lie, lie I just wanted to be where you are And you told, told me if I try, try, try You could help me see in the dark
When I sold, sold, sold you a lie, lie, lie I just wanted to be where you are And you told, told me if I try, try, try You could help me see in the dark It's getting dark (x4)
